Supercar Life - driving at a racetrack in Las Vegas

This weekend, we went to Las Vegas and we got to drive a Porsche Turbo 977, Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo, Aston Martin DB9 and a Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black Series at a Supercar Life half day driving session. Five amazing cars, five hours.

When we arrived at the track at 8am, all of the cars were lined up and ready to go. One of our drivers walked us through all of the models and told us how to start them and set them in automatic or manual. Then we got to try them out in the parking lot. First we accelerated as fast as we could in a straight line and broke really hard. Second, we wove around four or five cones as fast as we could then got back in line to try out the next car.

During the second part of the session, we started by sitting with a driver for two laps so they could show us what the car could do. For the third and fourth laps, we got to drive the same model and try to follow the driver ahead of us. Here's Daniel with a driver in the Mercedes.

Me in the Aston Martin.

I am definitely not as interested in cars as Daniel is, but this driving session was SOOOOOOOO much fun. Each car was different and had different capabilities and I have a new appreciation for race cars.
