Exotic car driving experience, where can I get that in LA?
March 52010
I wanted to do a one day track driving experience with either a Ferrari, Lamborghini, or an Aston Martin DB9. Can anyone direct me to a site of a company that offers this in LA
Its a gift for my brother, I wanted to send him to like a track day training school like the ones they have in the UK. I dont mind spending like 2 grand.
I’ve used these guys before for a birthday gift. Less than you mentioned at 2 grand. These guys are about 1 grand plus a couple of bucks a mile. Be careful. Easy to go grand touring at 2 bucks a mile. 
Have fun!
No track courses that I know of or can find. Your only alternative would be to rent the car and a track. The insurance on the car would probably be cost prohibitive where this is concerned, but then again for me, so is the daily rate. Was a one time thing for me.
PS, get the Modena.
Here is from the site:

Policies
We want you to have as much fun as possible, but we do have a few policies in place for everyone’s safety:
Damage deposit
This is to cover items like scratched paint, dented bumpers, smoked tires or brakes, ink stains on the leather, etc.
$2,000 damage deposit is authorized on your credit card, or paid in cash for the Ferrari
$1,000 damage deposit is authorized on your credit card, or paid in cash, for the Mercedes
Auto Insurance
Full coverage auto insurance is required – we can check on this for you and it won’t cost you anything. 99% of people’s existing insurance policies allow them to drive rental cars. Just give us your agent’s name and number and we’ll take care of it.
