Bentley Continental GT, Lambo Gallardo, and the Vette Z06.

I signed up for a spot at their Chicago visit in June. They will be bringing these beauties to many locations throughout 2006.

Check them out at www.wcdriving.com

I came across the opportunity from their full-page ad in the last issue of Car & Driver. Be prepared to part with $800 bucks for the opportunity. You get a minimum of 30 minutes driving each of these cars through the day.

For me, this is a dream come true. :rock:

congrats! but for $800..... it would have to remain a dream for me....

I get to drive those and get paid for it ( i vallet park for this really expensive place)
Still...thats really kick ass!! Congrats! Im sure there are many guys out there who would sacrifice a limb for that experience (or $800)

That's a pretty cool idea. I think i'd rather rent an exotic for a couple days for that same 800 than do 30 min in each. Should be fun though. I expect a full report with many photos.

I like your thinking BlueEyes, but I sent them an email to see if they are coming to a city near me. I think for the opportunity to drive all of the cars the same day would be worth it, especially from a comparison standpoint. Now my wife letting me do it, is an entirely different story. I can just hear it now... "Yes of course WE can do that" ...so it would cost me double. Hmmm maybe I don't tell her :suspect:

Sounds like fun, but like the others said, a bit too pricey.

Now my wife letting me do it, is an entirely different story. I can just hear it now... "Yes of course WE can do that" ...so it would cost me double.

Actually, a second person is allowed for $250.00, but they do not get to drive, and are limited to only a few rides during the day.

The comparison is what I am really stoked about. It will help me figure out if the Z06 is truley in the same league as the other exotics, and may help me decide I need one! Owning any of the others is unlikely....

I seen that same ad in Car and Driver. You drive each of them for 30 miles not 30 minutes. I wish they would have done this last year. I could've actually done it, I got too many bills this year. Kinda sucks, they're gonna be in St. Louis which is only a 1 hour drive from where I live.

I believe they also took out an ad in Road & Track.

They've asked for my shirt & hat size, and will be getting some type of picture taken, which will be neat.

Oh heck yes! 800 for 30 miles in 6 different cars that I'll never be able to afford. Worth it.

This next Saturday is my big day in Chicago. Will be flying there on Friday.

The only thing better than doing this, is if I had the ability to own them.

Sounds like a great time...enjoy yourself!!

Nooo! They're not coming out west?!

sucks you dont get the Ford GT...I would choose the GT and Viper over teh Bentley and Masserati.

very cool but very expesnive for me especially for just a memory, can you take videos and pictures?

My day is the 23rd of June...so next thursday I get my moment of plesure.... I Own a Porsche Cayman S besides my 8.

Sucks you have to be 25. Age descrimination.

I'm curious as to which public roads they let you loose on. Their website says that speed limits must be obeyed, no dangerous driving, etc.

I'm wondering if for $800 + tax whether people will even get a chance to come close to a quick blast to triple digits or whether they'll lead the pack in a 65 mph train.

Those who signed up, please post all your impressions of the event. (And make sure to rub it in if you got the chance to run the Gallardo or F430 to 150 :aroused: )

Seriously, the only cars I want to drive are the F430, Gallardo, and GT. So I will give them 1/4 of their asking price, lol..

Back home after a quick trip to the north.

Rating on 1-10 scale === 10, for sure.

I have never driven anything like these cars, they were truly worth the price of admission. There was some disappointment -- the Ford GT had been busted up by some goober, and The Astin Martin DB9 got over-revved by another idiot, so those rides were not available.

What I did drive was, in this order:
Corvette Z06
Ferrari F430
Porshe Carrera 911
Maserati convertible
Lamborghini Gallardo
Bentley GT

I was surprised by the Z06. Did not expect it to be as well rounded as it was. It does compete with cars costing twice as much.

They plan on offering this next year at varying locations, so keep a lookout in your favorite car mag if interested.

Nooo! They're not coming out west?!

there are several events in california...most of them are sold out, but they are there.
