I'm hoping to do the same this summer if they get enough people interested in my area this year.

Partly still build related though  :D   
I want to know what the shifter and pedals feel like in a real Ferrari before building a sim setup someday.

I imagine they are super strict.
Any chance they'll let me blast music from Outrun during my run and videotape my girlfriend hitting me afterward?

Lol they were pretty cool, first you do a slow lap just to run the course then they let you go at it. The guy was cheering me while I was slamming him into the passenger door, I had all four wheels chirping through most of the corners.

In the end I couldn't take the 599 out because the brakes overheated so I did my best to pull the tires off this instead

The other choices were very nice too

was afraid to open the thread and see what it was about, because who would want to stop building cabs, but this is awesome, i would love to have been there and done it myself.

What happens if you crash it?

You use your own insurance when you sign up

But your ride is not of that calibre right?

So if your policy is good for a Honda Civic, your insurance will pay up for a totalled supercar?

Really?  Sign me up!
