Las Vegas Motor Speedway: Exotic Car Driving & Track Laps

Summary

Las Vegas supercar drive with real track time and expert tips

You’ll feel your pulse race as you drive a real supercar at Las Vegas Motor Speedway with a pro instructor by your side. Start with safety tips and discovery laps in an SUV, then take control for five unforgettable laps on a professional track. Lounge access lets you unwind after—plus you’ll leave with a certificate and maybe even a funny story or two.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I remember is the smell — not of gasoline, but this weird mix of tire rubber and something sharp in the air at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It’s louder than you’d think, even before you get near the cars. I was half-nervous, half-grinning when we checked in (the guy at the desk had a dry sense of humor and kept calling my friend “Speed Racer,” which stuck for the rest of the day). The classroom session felt serious but not stiff — our instructor, Marco, made sure everyone actually understood what to do if things got hairy on a turn. I appreciated that he didn’t sugarcoat it.

Those two discovery laps as a passenger were wild — sitting in the backseat of a souped-up SUV, feeling every bump and curve way more than I expected. My stomach did this little flip on the straightaway (not embarrassing at all…). When it was finally my turn behind the wheel of the Lamborghini, my hands were sweating inside those gloves. Marco sat next to me, calm as ever. He kept reminding me to breathe and look ahead instead of down at the speedometer — honestly harder than it sounds when your heart’s thumping like that.

I didn’t break any records on my five laps, but I swear there was this one perfect moment coming out of turn three where everything just clicked — engine noise fading into pure focus. Afterward, we hung out in the lounge (air conditioning never felt so good), watched some other folks take their runs, and joked about who looked most terrified in their onboard videos. Leaving with that certificate felt silly at first but now it’s pinned up next to my desk. Sometimes I still catch myself grinning about it out of nowhere.
