458 Italia - Huracan - GT3 on track video

Hey guys,

I was in Las Vegas last week so i decided to do the exotic car racing experience and drive as many cars as possible. This was my first time in any of these cars and first time on the track. I have never driven a sports car except a GTR if you consider it one so laugh all you want and call me a noob. I had a great time and definatly recommend it to anyone going to Vegas. It was a little pricey ($1500) but well worth it. I heard they are even getting a 488 Ferrari soon.

haha yea i didnt know about pdk

every car had its strengths,

the lambo felt extremely light and balanced with tons of power. it was also the fastest straight line car

the porsche was defiantly the most fun to drive, you had to accelerate out of corners to gain traction and steer the car which was a ton of excitement

the 458 basically did it all, it rewarded you the most and it was the easiest to drive.

if i had money to buy a car like these i would buy the new gt3 rs for sure.

Very nice. I think you forgot to hit the instructor mute button though. I would have had to tell them to STFU.

We offer something similar in Mirabel, Quebec Canada (ICAR Experience), and I have helped them out for a few days as an instructor.

The instructor in the Lambo was a PITA.

Loved the instructor feedback in the 911 GT3 and F458! He had a great tone of voice, just right amount of info, and positive feedback.

By the smile you had in the videos, it seemed like you enjoyed yourself silly...

Thanks for posting ...

The lambo sounds the best imho. The car that is, the instructor sounds a bit like Ron Jeremy?!?

Looked like a lot of fun.

i'm not comparing any of the cars in this thread. by all definitions it's a sports car regardless of how it feels to the above. i don't think anyone can call it lets say... a wagon or bus. perhaps i'm just being too literal.
