3 laps around Hallet Motor Raceway.

I must admit I was a bit disappointed by the power output. There was no sense of "raw in your face" power.

With that being said, it was still an amazing experience. The car sticks to the road like glue and is fairly predictable in its handling characteristics.

I highly recommended attending a http://adventuresupercars.com/ event if there is one in your area.

Next time they come through I'd like to try the Ferrari 458 Italia and the Audi R8.

Funny thing about these supercars... They look so large from the outside... but once you're inside they are extremely tiny. Anyone even near 6 foot will have a hard time fitting in one with a helmet on.

Shouldn't this post be in a Lamborghini forum?

Unfortunately, most cars like these seem more garage time than track time...

I drove one at the the Exotic Car Experience in Orlando last year. I did 6 laps on the former NASCAR track in Disney World. The thing that impressed me the most about the car was the brakes. They have a road course set up in the infield. So you exit a curve on the a straight then right before you enter the next curve you have to brake hard to turn into the road course section. This car went from 119mph to 35 in what felt like 20ft. I actually felt pressure on the back of my eyeballs.
Still rather have my Mustang back.

I drove a GT-R at Disney like Svtpilot talked about. And i have the same opinion, braking was crazy in that car. So was the handling. Loved driving it and wish I could own one along with my GT. End of the day though, the sound of a V8 Mustang alone wins my heart.
