As I said, they do let you push the cars pretty hard and I liked the layout of the track. Even the "discovery lap" the guy was hucking that Cayenne pretty good. All in all a great experience

Are you sure about that foot brake? I can't see them installing that...

I'd give him the keys back, tell him to fúck off and die, and write him a bad review as well as a bad review from my friends' accounts

Sorry, I enjoy hitting the redline, it's not bad for the car. And I don't want them to BS me

I did the 458 for two sessions and a Gallardo BiColoure for two sessions. 458 is probably the best car I've ever driven, I felt like I was "one" with the car. Definitely recommend doing it.

I did the dream car drive (like Pint bought for her husband)... same car too (F430). They let us take it to redline (would autoshift anyways), but the straight was so short that you would get to 3rd then have to brake and downshift (I opted for the paddles vs auto, yet it still auto shifts at redline). Even stepped the back-end out a bit and the guy said it was all good. :tup:

For $100, it was worth it. Any more than that and I'd have to pass, unless they were going to allow us to go a few more laps.

I did a similar event, and I was really unimpressed with the 430. It had fantastic turn-in, but that was about it. It wasn't particularly fast. It sounded fantastic, though. They had a Gallardo as well. Next time I'll try that one out.

Now the ride-along I won in a LFA was the exact opposite. I didn't expect much and was completely blown away.
