14hrs left to buy.

Like a rebellious older cousin or a speed-limit sign with a question mark, a sports car dares you to drive faster. Accelerate safely with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options

  • $159 for three laps in a luxury supercar on a professional road course (a $399 value)
  • $259 for three laps in two luxury supercars on a professional road course (a $798 value)
August 7–12, get behind the wheel of a luxury supercar such as a Porsche 911 (997), Lamborghini LP560, Audi R8, or Ferrari F430. Both options begin with a quick instruction on racing fundamentals and safety overviews for the vehicles and the course. After the short class, drivers slap on a helmet, throw on some gloves, and prepare for the 17 turns of the 2.38-mile MSR Houston racetrack. A professional driver is also available to take passengers around the course.

I bought a similar package that will be held at Texas Motor Speedway at the end of this month. It should be interesting.

Yes I did buy, and booked my day for Sat 11th Aug @ 1pm. I might have to get a new GoPro HD just for this.
