The Inaugural Fiat 500 Abarth Driving Experience

The Inaugural Fiat 500 Abarth Driving Experience was opened up to an interesting mix of invited participants. Each of the five teams consisted of a professional race car driver, a passionate Fiat 500 Facebook fan, a popular automotive website representative and a men's publishing editor. Throughout the course of the day these five teams would battle each other in the Abarth in four distinct ...

The Fiat 500 Abarth Driving Dynamics Challenge was the opening challenge of the day and was designed to measure the improvement of each driver. Drivers were eligible to receive full points if they demonstrated genuine improvement as they progressed through the track. Drivers that failed to show improvement were not awarded points for this challenge. All of the track times during this ...

Fiat 500 Abarth Driving Experience – Head-to-Head & Performance Drive Challenges

The Fiat 500 Abarth Head-to-Head Challenge was a fun and unique course layout. Unlike the other challenges, for the Head-to-Head Challenge the media tent was situated in the interior of the race track. Two Fiat 500 Abarth sports cars were positioned on either side of the tent and started the race at the same time with a red light signal. Drivers blazed through the course in opposite ...

High Speed & Drifting Ride-Along Experience

The high speed and drifting ride-along with a professional Indy Car driver at the Exotics Racing Experience in Las Vegas, NV was perhaps the most intense automotive experience of my life - and I don't consider myself to be void of performance car experiences. The action starts right from the pit area as he does a massive sideways burnout out onto the track in the blue Lamborghini Gallardo ...

Ferrari 458 Italia Experience at Exotics Racing Vegas

My favorite exotic car that I drove at the Las Vegas Exotics Racing Experience was the Ferrari 458 Italia. For approximately $220,000 this car seems like a relative bargain with its aggressive "in your face" appearance, intoxicating exhaust note, superb handling, blazingly quick acceleration, incredible cornering abilities and precise, responsive steering inputs. Plus its pretty cool to ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP550 Experience at Exotics Racing Vegas

At Exotics Racing of Las Vegas I had the privilege of racing a Lamborghini Gallardo LP550 around a curvacious race track and accompanied by a pro racing instructor. This Italian beast was very intense to drive. From the amazingly fast acceleration to the loud engine howls, this exotic car was an absolute blast to drive. As the race instructor continuously pushed me to drive faster and ...

Porsche 997 Turbo S Experience at Exotics Racing Vegas

The Porsche 997 Turbo S at Exotics Racing of Las Vegas is the quickest exotic car they have in their fleet. Now that's saying something since their fleet is comprised of some of the fastest cars in the world including 2 Lamborghini Aventadors (1 on order), McLaren MP4-12C, Mercedes SLS AMG, Nissan GT-R, Ferrari 458, Lamborghini Superleggera and so on. Evidently their policy is to purchase ...

Review of Exotics Racing Experience Las Vegas

So how can I describe an experience like I had at Exotics Racing Las Vegas? Sure I can say it was incredible, hair-raising, thrilling, frightening, a once-in-a-lifetime experience, etc, but until you are there in these exotic cars, in the experience then you’re really not in fully know what it's like. Telling you is one thing and it’s a whole different thing for you to personally feel the ...

Porsche 911 Carerra S Cabriolet Racing

This late model Porsche 911 Carerra S Cabriolet racing at the Hallett Race Track near Tulsa, Oklahoma, appeared to be completely stock and un-modified. If this is the case, then the Porsche is still a very quick sports car with a 0-60 time in the low 4 seconds and a top speed of 186 mph! Of course that is going to feel even quicker in a convertible Porsche 911 as opposed to a coupe version. I ...

Chevy ZO6 Corvettes vs Shelby GT500 Mustang vs Porsche Boxster S

This Corvette racing video was taken at the Hallett Race Track near Tulsa, Oklahoma in spring of 2012. There were a few more Corvettes racing that were not included in this video such as an awesome, vibrant blue 2011 Corvette ZR-1. The Corvettes were not only competing against each other on the Hallett road course, but also against a suped-up Porsche Boxster, BMW M3, Shelby GT500 Mustang, ...

Acura NSX vs Dodge Viper ACR

This Acura NSX vs Dodge Viper video was captured at the Hallett Race Track in Oklahoma. The NSX powered through the track and passed a few of the slower cars and Green Dodge Viper GTS didn't overtake it in the race. This Acura NSX was obviously highly modified to be race ready. I would probably rather own the Dodge Viper as opposed to the NSX, although no doubt both are amazingly fast cars ...

Ariel Atom Vs Open Wheel Race Cars

This Ariel Atom racing at the Hallett Race Track near Tulsa, OK was captured in Spring of 2012. It was competing in an open wheel racing class among several cars that were basically smaller versions of Indy cars. If you listen close you can hear the intake whine of the Ariel Atom. The Ariel Atom looked pretty much stock, except for a different set of wheels and sticky track tires. Hope you ...

Green ACR Dodge Vipers Racing

These two amazing Dodge Viper ACR race cars were filmed at the Hallett Racing Circuit near Tulsa, OK. They were racing a number of sports cars including a race ready Acura NSX, Mazda RX-7 Twin Turbo, Porsche Boxster, Nascars and more. The cars sounded amazing as they raced around the track as well as when they were merely idling. Post a comment if you like these green ACR Dodge ...

Shelby Cobra 427 Racing Corvettes

These videos and pictures of this AC Shelby 427 Cobra racing Corvettes and other performance cars were taken at the Hallett Race Track near Tulsa, OK. The Shelby Cobra sounded amazing as it powered through the race course and overtaking other race cars. I'm not sure if this was an original Shelby 427 Cobra or a replica Cobra, but I would imagine that it is a replica as those are far more ...
