In Vegas again. Had to do the Exotics Racing again. Ferrari 458...again. Also drove the Porche 997 Turbo and a Ferrari 430 Scuderia. Might put those vids up too. This instructor was great as are most there. I like hearing somebody telling you to "go!" in a $300,000 car or whatever they cost :rofl: Plus the shower cap is nice under the helmet.

It's an awesome feeling for sure, but I don't know if I could have somebody in my ear like that after racing.

I'd like to do that, can you just show up and pay?

Probably best to schedule a session ahead of time. They can fill up.

You suck...I'm just hating out of jealousy 458 is my current favorite car!

That's awesome. How much did that cost?

Trust me, if he or she is a good instructor, you want them in your ear. My brother races his Porsches, up at Willow Springs, and every chance I get I go with him and do this. Its a rush. Looks like you had fun. Jealous for the different kindas of vehicles you got to drive.

Cool but ya it would make me nervous with him in my ear. Just like when I had "training" doing heavy hauling. Which I had been doing for years. The very experienced driver in my ear all the time had me so F-up I started missing shifts. He meant well, but I had to tell him to STFU and let do it for bit. Driving a race car at 150mph is a little different though.

You want to have fun and learn, go to the Ron Fellows school in Pahrump at Spring Mountain. The ZR1 course is either 2 or 3 days. There are classroom sessions where you learn all kinds of stuff, followed by track sessions where you go out and do it. Laps follow the instructor's line with him watching. He's in contact over the car's radio but not in your ear all the time. There are also open laps. The whole thing is very professional and first class.

It's the nature of the place. It's setup so anybody can walk in and do five laps or whatever. Not really practical to do the whole "school" type thing.

Looks like a lot of fun, Jerry. :thumb:

Is it around a $1,000 for the day of racing in the exotics?
