    Hi guys,

    Thanks for the opportunity to post here.. I am hoping someone can help.

    One of my closest friends who lives around Redmond, WA has a life long dream of driving a Ferrari. Whenever we drive around and see one, he becomes a deer in the headlights just looking at it.

    Even though he is an accomplished and smart, professional guy, he recently went through some traumatic life events and has been having a bit of a tough time the past few years - it would be wonderful to be able to help him live his dream of driving a Ferrari for even a day or an hour.

    Does anyone have any ideas how I could help him do this? I haven't been able to identify any businesses in the area that serve this kind of need.

    Thank you,
    Alan

    Thanks Mr V & SCousineau those are two options I wasn't able to find before!

    Great American Days doesn't have any dates scheduled right now but I'll check back. The $1k/day rate in Portland looks good I will have to see if I can get him out there (~3 hours away).

    If anyone else has any other options please keep them coming. I really appreciate your guys' help.

    If you are willing to drive to Vancouver BC...there is a company that does an exotic car drive. wife and I did it in May and had a blast. All cars were 2009 models aside from the tesla. drove a gtr, giardo, 360 convertable, r8, tesla p85 d with insane mode.

    Had a little less than an hour in each car on a beautiful scenic route. More time can be spent in a particular car if others in the group don't want to rotate.

    If you are interested I can dig up a link but I am sure google can find it easily.
