You could rent a Lotus Elise for a couple days and take it to a track day for about the same amount of money.

I know these things are tempting, but I always figure it just puts me that much farther from owning a really great car myself.

edit: Damn, I responded to this one twice. Shows how much I pay attention. At least both responses were reasonably similar.

I did something similar last year, you could drive everything but the RS4...they had professional drivers that took you around the track on that (helluva rush) and the whole thing was free.

I've got a buddy that has two 500hp vipers amongst his collection and he has let me drive them on several occasions. They are definately track cars, driving them on city streets is just frustrating and the freeway is only slightly better unless your in the middle of nowhere But when you do finally get to let the reigns out they are amazingly fast and scary, the speed is really intensified by being so close to the ground.

Honestly, that's the appeal of smaller, lighter sports cars. A car with the Viper's hp to weight ratio, but a lighter, tidier body gives you much more opportunity to explore its potential.

Driving a TT at 115 on the high banks of Pocono made the trip worthwhile in itself. Doing crazy things like driving an $80,000 A8L and a Q7 in a slalom course were just icing on the cake! It's amazing what they let you get away with, considering that it's a "free" event.

There is a slim chance that you could get a reserve a spot on the waiting list for next week's event if you hurry, but it's a long shot at this point.

that's awesome. how's the A8L? that's my dream car

how bout the TT (the new one, right?)

The A8 actually handles pretty well for a big car. Much better than the Q7, anyway... That thing was like steering a ship around the cones

The new TT is a nice ride, but I would have liked to get some more track time in that one. They cut us off just when I was getting used to throwing it around the corners of the road course!

I had some problems with the exercises that used the A4, though. They gave me a car that was JUST like my old ride (V6 Quattro with the premium package... it was even the same color!), and the instructor was yelling at me for not pushing the car hard enough

giggle /school girl, I'm so excited I just chipped my car so it's now 210hp (up from 170) w/240tq (up from 170) I can only imagine what the RS4 is going to be like! My engine X2 and mooooore

I'm quite surprised this thread is still alive too :beer:
