$70 for a couple Auto-X laps in an F360/F430 or Gallardo?

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Also...which one would you pick? I think I would pick the F360 if manual personally, F430 if Auto.

For me, AutoX is $60 for about 8 runs (sometimes more). I assume the AutoX course is about a minute, so $35 a minute seems very steep...

I’d go F car over Gallardo...even though I’ve never driven any of them :)

Seems like NP to me. I’ve always seen these sorts of things at twice the price even on deals. I’d go 360, but that is due to my love affair with that car in Forza.

Meh...CP for me.

For a little more money you could take a similar car out on a road course at one of those exotic car drives (if you’re into that sort of thing.)

I did one in a Murcielago. It won’t be manual, it will have the traction aids on, you have to wear their helmet (yuck), the auto isn’t so much an autox but a lame loop around some cones, and the dudes running it were not cool with excessive hoonage.

That being said, I did get to use the flappy pedals, I did go faster than the instructor said people go, and on my last lap I scandinavian flicked that pasta rocket like my life depended on it and swung her hard and wide before the traction control took over and reeled me in for the end of the “course.” I got kicked out, but got my full run in so I was happy and it was SO WORTH IT.

I did this in a Gallardo in Philadelphia when they came here, and honestly it was kinda underwhelming. These cars aren’t exactly great at autoX (maybe the Ferrari is more nimble) and there was only one major acceleration point.

Probably CP, because they will likely use a course layout that will prevent you from doing anything exciting. You’re basically paying $70 just to say that you got to drive a Ferrari, but in reality you likely won’t get it out of 2nd gear.

CP for me. Ditto everything everyone else has said, and add that they didn’t let us use first gear at all. Also I’m pretty sure they shorted me a lap.

CP because they never let you really drive them. Generally you’re blacklisted if you really attack the course.
