Exotics Racing Vegas
 
I am going to be in Vegas and I think I am going to splurge and spend a few valuable mod $ on a track experience instead of on mods. 5 laps for $200.

What would you choose to drive:

Ferrari F430 F1

Ferrari F430 Scuderia

Ferrari 458 Italia

Audi R8 V10

Nissan GT-R

Ron C! 01-25-2013 03:20 PM

The Scuderia for sure. Or the 458.

SFL_driver 01-25-2013 03:29 PM

Definitely the 430 Scuderia.

Mr.Bill 01-25-2013 03:40 PM

I would spend the money at Spring Mountain. http://www.springmountainmotorsports.com/

While I'll never own one (mainly due to cost to buy and maintain), I think I would choose one of the Ferrari models. :yesnod:

You're forgetting a LAMBO?

flaagan 01-25-2013 04:49 PM

Lambo if it's an option, otherwise the Audi (with the 430 F1 as an alt choice).

DSTURBD 01-25-2013 07:26 PM

Spring Mountain Looks Awesome!!!! I would do both.

JaxEagle 01-25-2013 10:09 PM

Lambo is an option but costs more and not worth it to me bc I like those other cars better. Just personal preference. Just not a Lambo fan.

Good suggestion, I like the idea. I spent 10 minutes on the spring mountain website and haven't seen the first thing that looked like a price. Gotta keep digging. Thanks for the suggestion as I may do that instead if it looks better.

Tough to argue that

JaxEagle 01-25-2013 10:20 PM

Dumb question maybe, but I wonder if all of these things are going to be paddle shift automatics? I'm not spending that kind of money to do that even though just to be able to go all out in a Ferrari, Audi ec. would be cool. Not sure if 5 laps are worth $250 in an automatic though. Maybe if the Casino tables are extra generous....

The Audi is one of my top 2 favorite non Corvettes with the 458 being the other so I think I just answered my own question.... duh....

James2002z06 01-25-2013 10:25 PM

The Nissan .....
 
Gentlemen is no joke , I know I'm fixing to get slammed
Before my wife got her 350 Z a year ago they had one out that u could take a demo ride in , that freaking car is scary fast
Just my 2 cents...

Listen I have done the Exotic racing and it is worth EVERY PENNY. Do the drive TWO for like 399 and pick two. You get 10 laps total.

I drove the GTR and I passed every ferrari, lambo, and audi out there on the track like they were sitting still. It is a black edition with 0-60 in 3.0 seconds. IT IS QUICK and I have a ls7 swapped c5(Had a 08 gen IV Viper for a few months too) so my car is no slouch either. Trust me that car is worth it.

I passed 6 cars in five laps with that car. I have never raced a track in my life and I know it was my car and instructor not so much my driving skills.

ALL CARS ARE PADDLE SHIFTS. they have a z06 that you can RIDE in and drift the track but the criteria for cars there is <1000000 dollars and have to have paddle shifts hence no zr1's or gt500's.

You sir are correct. Coming from someone who has been there....Statistically the only better car there is a porsche PTK and a lambo aventador.

RC000E 01-25-2013 11:33 PM

I can't BELIEVE you people are saying 430 over the 458...that's a damn no brainer! The 458 is faster around some tracks than the Enzo!

Personally, even though I know your temptation is to drive the Ferrari's, I've driven the Testarossa, 355, 360 and 430....8 cylinder Ferrari's just don't do it for me. In addition, you are liable BIG if you damage one. So, in consideration of that, I'd drive the GTR. It's more sure footed, likely faster around that track than any of those Ferrari's, and cheaper to fix.

I'd rent the GTR and beat the piss out of it.

James2002z06 01-26-2013 12:07 AM

No you wouldn't
 
The GTR will smoke anything there , Randy you let us know which one ..

Maxx_Z06 01-26-2013 12:31 AM

I wish I had that problem of not knowing what car to drive. None the less all those cars are amazing and well worth the 200 for the 5 laps.

But I'd go with one of the Ferrari models as stated above.
