Item Description

Your party of (1) will experience five of the world's most heralded automotive icons in one unbelievable day on some of the most scenic U.S. roads. Nowhere in the world has such a collection of supercars been made available for you.

Upon arrival, guests are free to check in with a courteous staff member to complete necessary paperwork, meet each other and enjoy food and beverage and participate in a briefing session. Each instructing staff member has years of professional driving experience in racing and coaching. Whatever guests' driving level, each driver can move at their own pace, ensuring novices and expert drivers alike will have a thrilling driving experience.

Events last between four to four and half hours in length. During this time, the driver will be guaranteed driving time in all five supercars. You will receive approximately twenty-five minutes of time behind the wheel of each vehicle. Also included is a special gift commemorating your experience. A guest passenger may accompany the driver for an additional $300. Valid one year from date of purchase and subject to availability.

To participate a driver needs to be between 25 and 70 years old, hold a valid US or Canadian driving license, and be able to drive the cars without the aid of special equipment. There are no specific weight or height restrictions for participation in a WCD event, however, all of the cars have limited headroom and are fitted with racing seats, which provide lateral support. It is our experience that drivers over 280 lbs or 6'5" or taller may be extremely uncomfortable.
