If you ever get up this way, let me know and I'll go with you. 1.5 hrs in a Cayman was $300. Tj we are in the snack shop/patio over looking the track, went to the gift shop, toured the museum and resto,shop, and went home tired and happy...do it! C

I'm dying to do this! Must have been a blast. From the pics I've seen it looks like an incredible facility.

I am interested in adopting...lol

I had my Birthday dinner there and this is my second trip there. I am serious, if ANYONE gerts a chance to come to atlanta, I,will be your personal guide. If you fly in, the Porsche Experience is right off one of Atlanta airports runway-planes come,right over every 15 minutes or so. And both the airport and tHe Experience are less than 15 miles from my home. I'll meet you at the airport in my TT..I only work,2 days a week now. Note tHe Experience is not open Sundays and track,reservations are booked out days/weeks in advance..

Check out their site..I am more impressed each time I go there. And now they have opened a second P Experiemce in the LA area..

You must come to Atlanta...

Drcheap I'll probably take you up on that in the near future. I've been wanting to go since I'm not too far. And the price isn't bad considering what you get to do and the level of instruction!
