Christmas gift from my wife that did not fit under the tree....
Awesome, adrenaline rush, thrill of a lifetime...what can I say to explain it without you sitting in the car and feeling the engine and hearing the exhaust?
Drove four cars...Lamborghini Superleggera LP-570-4 Spyder a Ferrari 348 Italia, a Jaguar XLR-S, and my dream car, an Audi R8
Our instructors/guides, Webster and Julie, kept us in a tight formation as we snaked through Vegas traffic out to the Lake Mead Recreation area for our real drive. Highlights of their interaction were reminding my wife to stay in formation and outrunning us all in their pace car....don't let the Jag sedan fool you....those two can drive.
The views in the park were only made better by the sound of the cars' engines revving up and then standing together at our driver change-out locations. The looks the campers and locals gave us as we roared by were classic.
The only thing better was the sound of my teenage son and I howling with delight as we accelerated and made the turns in the park (at the posted speed limits, of course)
I will definitely do this again on my next trip to Vegas, and hope that I get a couple of new cars to compare versus these four. None of them disappointed...even the Jag pulled and kept up with the Lamborghini without hesitation.
A must do if you are a car enthusiast or just want a life-long memory and pictures to prove you did it.
