Grettings everyone. Park Place Ltd. is having a driving school/ lapping day at Pacific Raceways on Tuesday May 16th. We welcome anybody who may have an interest in joining us for a fun filled event. Exciting recent news!!! You can now rent a Lotus Elise or Exige through Proformance Racing School for the day at the track. Contact Ryan Vanderwel or Shannon Low at (425) 562-1000 for more details. Happy Motoring!
Awesome, very fun, great weather, great people, interesting vehicles, breakfast and lunch provided, it doesn't get much better than that! Drove a Lotus Elise with the Sport Pack added and AC deleted for two sessions, just wish I could have done more! That car was so easy to drive and so much faster than my 1983 Mondial QV. There were a ton of Lotus Elises, plus a couple of Exiges and two Esprits. Two Corvettes, several late model Porsches plus a 944, a Noble M400, a Viper, a couple of Subaru WRXs, etc. There was one black TR in the paddock, but didn't see any Ferraris on track, at least in the morning. I highly recommend signing up for a Lotus rental, either for the school or lapping (assuming you can fit in it - they are tiny). Thank you, Park Place Ltd and Proformance Racing School!
Oh yeah, how could I forget? Pete Brock was there showing and driving a beautiful red and white Superformance Coupe. Yes, the real Pete Brock, Corvette and Daytona Coupe designer, and yes a real 402 ci, 500 hp, 200 mph, slalom and skidpad record holding Superformance Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe. See http://www.parkplaceltd.com/pages/files/shelbydaytona.aspx and http://www.parkplaceltd.com/pages/superformance/coupe_superformance.pdf for details. He was driving it smoothly and reasonably quickly on track, but not thrashing on it. Truly gorgeous!
Yes, Proformance Racing School has Lotus Elises for rental for either their one-day school or for lapping practice. http://www.proformanceracingschool.com/ One day school plus Elise rental: $1075 Lapping practice: $200 for 30 min. Not cheap, but racing never is!
