    Hey Guys,
    I haven't posted in awhile, but I just got some news I wanted to share........I MAY be able to drive the Bugatti V, and the Maseratti MC 12 in october. An acquantance of mine just purchased both cars, and apparently there is a 1.5 mile track somewhere out near Vegas. he's having a party and about 15 of us will get to go to the track and drive the cars. he said no one can go over 120, and it's all still kind of "iffy"....but it looks like it's gonna happen, and even if I don't get a chance to actually drive them, I should have some awesome pics.

    I'll keep ya posted.

    no, I've never tracked.........I just plan on driving around at 60 - 80 mph with a huge grin on my face and making sure my buddy has the video rolling! :)

    In all fairness, the OWNER of the cars, i can't really count as a friend.....but we have some Mutual friends and they asked him if they could bring a guest....me. So I hope it all comes to fruition. He's also opening some kind of "car club" type thing in Orlando by next spring....I'll keep ya posted.

    If that club needs an offical high end detailer...cough *quickly raises hand*

    That sounds like an awesome opportunity in all seriousness, I hope you get the chance! :D

    Sounds like it will be a truly memorable experience.....the Veyron in particular is sure to be an amazing drive.....

    Hey!
    I just got my tickets! I am going to fly out to Vegas on Oct 4, spend 2 nights at the Wynn, and the drive is going to be on Saturday afternoon. It's a track, somewhere on the outskirts of Vegas.....don't know the name, I think it has a limit of 170 mph, or maybe that is the owners limit that he's imposing...I'm not sure, but I don't think I'm going to push it at all. I'm just excited to go and get pics......the whole driving thing is still kind of surreal. I should have pics and stuff in a couple of weeks.

    If anyone is going to be out in Vegas that weekend, shoot me an email....maybe we could meet and if there is a chance to see the cars for photo purposes, I can try and get you in.
