What do I need to drive?
You must be at least 18 years old with a valid driver’s license. Unfortunately, driver’s permits, passports, and photos of licenses aren’t accepted. And remember, all drivers must wear flat, closed-toed shoes (think tennis shoes or sneakers)—sandals and heels won’t cut it on the track!
How long does the experience last?
The full experience lasts approximately 2 hours, which includes check-in, a 25-minute classroom safety briefing, time in the pit, and the ride-along session itself. Please note that the actual time spent on the racetrack is significantly shorter than the total event duration. This may vary depending on your event’s schedule and number of participants.
What should I expect on the big day?
Arrive at least 30 minutes early at the designated spot. Start with a quick registration, followed by a safety briefing and driving instructions. For driving experiences, you’ll meet your pro instructor, get acquainted with the vehicle, and then hit the track for your adrenaline-filled adventure. Professional photographers and videographers will be there to capture all the action, with the option to purchase these keepsakes afterward.
Do I need to know how to drive a stick?
No worries! All supercars come with a semi-automatic transmission, so they handle just like an automatic car.
What kind of insurance coverage is included?
The experience includes basic coverage with $20,000 in protection and a $6,000 deductible. You’ll also have the option to upgrade your policy on the day of your experience.
Do I need prior racing experience?
Not at all! This experience is designed for drivers of all levels, so anyone can live out their dream of racing a supercar!
How fast will I be going?
Your top speed will depend on your comfort level, skill, and the track’s layout. Trust us—whether it’s your need for speed or finesse, this supercar will deliver! Consider adding a 3-lap ride-along before your driving experience to get a feel for the track and speed with a pro driver.
Can I use my own GoPro or drone on the track?
Personal cameras can’t be mounted on vehicles, drivers, or riders as they pose a risk of falling off, and drones are prohibited per track rules. Don’t worry though; multiple photo/video packages are available for purchase on the day!
Can I bring a passenger?
Not in the driver’s seat! The supercars only have two seats, and your “co-pilot” will be a professional driving instructor. They’ll guide you on the track and help you push your skills to the limit.
