Las Vegas - World Class Driving Experience

[tpurcell4]

Hey,

Just got back from Vegas. It's one of my favorite places to go, it's warm, it's close and there are tonnes of things to do.

This trip I tried something different that made it awesome. Instead of wasting money on the strip I did something a bit different. Check out World Class Driving (http://www.worldclassdriving.com)

Here are some pics from our tour of Redrock Canyon!

Best trip to Vegas yet. Full line up cars we got to drive:

Ferrari 438 italia - OMG best by far: looks, handling, speed and still comfortable

Lamborghini Murcielago - Looks sexy, drives heavy. Was a bit of a let down after driving the Ferrari. Still a fun car!

Lamborghini Gallardo - Same as the Murcielago, slightly different profile

Jaguar XJRS - Threw me back into the seat because I was not expecting that much power based on the look. Luckily one of the most comfortable seats I have sat in. This car had it all, luxury, comfort, speed and handling. Do not under estimate the power this car has. It had not problem keeping up to its sportier sisters!

Next time you are down in Vegas check it out. $500 gets you an experience to remember!

Nice, I drove the Mclaren MP4-12C when I was there in August at the speedway, I regret not choosing the 458 Italia.

This is all on public roads, right? So you can't really do much?

Seems like the Speedway is still the way to go, where you can actually drive the bag off the cars on a track. Seat time is probably a lot less though. Depends what you're after I guess. $500 is pretty cheap too.

How many miles do you get to drive in each car? Also do you drive it with an employee or follow in a convoy with your GF or whoever?

Added to my wish list! Great post! Who's the girl?

NICE

Nice, I did the same drive (Red Rock Canyon) back in January...brings back the memories!

We had the 458, SLR AMG, Jag, and Audi R8 (as someone had a minor crash the week before in the Lambo lol...so was in the shop).

Public roads yes, but in town and out on the freeway.

They sort of have a 'agreement' with park rangers (as freeway is under park jurisdiction or whatever), basically you still get to 'test' it.

We had multiple spots where we could let it go out on the freeway on our tour (they also say it depends on traffic, we did on weekday so less).

None of the employees are in car with you. In just you, or you and passenger ($99 for passenger) if you have one.

But they have their employees in own cars (Jags), one leading in front and one out back - to make sure everything is OK, etc.

So how long are you gone for start to finish? $500 is pretty cheap to be getting to cruise in some exotics.

This looks stellar. Las Vegas Rock Crawlers is another good option, although a totally different expereince.

Yes was all on open road ways so you don't get to open it up all the way, however we did get up to 100mph.

I didn't track the miles in each car, but we had about 30 minutes or so per car and 4 cars. The Ferrari was the last one I got to drive so I had it for a bit longer :)

And we followed one by one in a convoy with their staff in First and Last regulating speed based on traffic and police.

Got to ride with my girlfriend, which is the girl in the pics!

And for $500, would do again!!!!

Sorry for the late reply on this one, been busy since back in town and out to New Orleans

[eblend]

Def doing this next time I go

[Xtrema]

Heard of this. Even tho I have driven every car they got, it's damn cheap for a cruise.

[tpurcell4]

Definitely worth it if you are down in Vegas anyway! Cheaper than some of the shows too!
