Anyone experienced Gotham Dream Cars?
I got a Groupon coupon from a buddy- as he knows this is in my wheelhouse. Gotham Dream Cars "Sprint" event, which is an auto-X (total=1 hour, intro, drivers meeting and then "track" event) .....pick a Ferrari (458?) or a Lambo (Gallardo?). The event is over the 4th of July holiday weekend, New Britain Stadium in New Britain, CT. I'm pretty much ready to pull the trigger....my choice the 458.........
Anyone have any experience with Gotham Dream Cars? Yes, ? No? feedback?

Holy Moly; thank for the link......... however a couple of young kids, screwing up isn't going to deter me. This is like saying that since centerlocks are prone to failure the GT3/Rs's they aren't safe or "worthy" cars. Well, I don't agree...as one day one will be in my garage.
I do thank you for the info- the link just proves that kids and high powered cars don't always mix well.

is there a predefined route or can you go where you want?
I can't see driving a Ferrari/Lambo/etc anywhere in metro NYC as being fun. now if you can go upstate or to the Berkshires...

I am psyched. I ( and my wife) get to drive a 458 ( or a Lambo) on a pre-defined autocross course set up in a stadium parking lot in New Britain, CT on July 4th.
So how's this:
Ferrari 458= super machine, no doubt- costs a fortune;
Driving with instructors for a few laps, worth it, what's that worth?
paddle shift a 458, priceless .......well really, for 100 bucks, now that is, practically, priceless.
Can't wait and this should be a happy 4th of July!!!

No, not per lap, the afternoon (about an hour) is $99.00, drive the 458 or a lambo, with an instructor, closed Auto-x course in a stadium parking lot. Basically, I get to, hopefully, actually drive a 458.........priceless, not simply look at pix or drool over one in a showroom or at a track when one shows up at a P-car event.
