Turned 21... got to track a Ferrari 458 Italia.
Went to Las Vegas last weekend for my Bday, but mainly to drive with ExoticsRacing at LVMS. After paying respects to Sir Wheldon inside the big track, we headed just south of the track to the club circuit, a 1.3 mile roadcourse. They have all sorts of exotics to pick from, and the prices are scaled accordingly. Me and my pops both went with the Ferrari 458 Italia. Unfortunately I never got to put it in "race mode", so TCS and ASC hindered me all the while, put it was still a blast. Check it out.
Of course I wore my MT.net shirt.
Here is my dads video. He got the car with race headers and catless exhaust, so it sounded way better than my car. He also got to switch to "race mode" the last 2 laps.
So now I'm selling everything I own, including my body, in order to purchase one of these beasts.

My friend did that after basic as a reward for himself. He did the Ferrari and some Lamborghini. Said for the price and performance differences, he'd buy the C6 he rented to drive from LA to Vegas.

They have pro-drifter guy named Ruben or something who goes out there with a passenger ($100 for 2 laps) in a C6 z06 and tears it up, goes through 3 sets of tires a day. Talk about the world's greatest job.
Scott, I c wut u did thur
First time I have ever ridden with an instructor in my car. I don't care for it much, and I really don't like when they grab the wheel, it is not a good feeling.

There are the prices.
No, I had a small buzz, nothing special.
The guy was a bit over the top, but when you put random civilians in 200k+ cars on a track, you have to be careful. Obviously I don't need an instructor, I am a racing driver, no one is faster than me.
