    Do yall agree? Date night car is the Ferrari and the track car is the Z06? I dunno…… my Z96 looked pretty good under the lights. Let me know in the comments below!

    @7:54 friendly correction. That is a 488 Pista. Basically a limited number track weapon version of the 488GTB you drove. Also, the 488 and Pista and all Ferraris after 2009 for that matter come stock with carbon ceramic brakes (CCB). The 488/Pista cars have the same brake system as the LaFerrari Hypercar and thus the rear brakes modulate heavy in corners for stability control and are VERY harsh on the CCB's so most track rats and places like this swap out the $30,000 set of CCB's and store them for sale with the car later and install steel brake sets for hard use and affordable replacement.
    As for the Pista, it's regarded as one of the last great Ferrari cars before the Hybrid BS. The 458 Speciale as well. At the end of every model run, Ferrari honors each model with a limited number release of a "kitchen sink" version of the car, they throw everything at it and send it off farewell as a new model will replace it. They have more aero, more power, more carbon, stripped interior, race car for the road stuff. I own a 488GTB but the Pista is a dream car for me! One day! A decent spec 488GTB is currently trading hands at $250K-$270K used right now. A 488 Pista is over $500K all day used. So basically double the cost for a higher power, better looking, better sounding and limited number version. Dream car.
    EDIT: Also the instructor was referring to the 296GTB parked to the left of the Pista. It's one of the newest Ferrari models. It's a smaller frame, TTV6 with hybrid boost. I've driven a couple and the best I can say is, it feels like a 900HP S2000 that handles like a racecar. It doesn't sound too bad either for being a forced induction V6 since Ferrari utilized their V12 architecture for the block angle and intake plenums. It sounds like a mini screaming V12 and even better with aftermarket exhaust. They are currently trading hands for $400K+

    I own a 488GTB. It needs a race exhaust to open up the sound. I installed a inconel (higher pitch and stronger than Ti) X pipe on mine and it REALLY made a difference. I also track it and the C8 Z06 is a great car with a great PFC high revving engine but at the end of the day I had Lamborghini's and Ferrari's on my wall as a kid, not a Vette. As good as the Vette is, it just doesn't get me excited when I walk out to stare at a piece of art in the garage and then go rip some corners for some smiles per gallon therapy. To each their own!

    i take the Ferrari any day.
    Despite the high performance of the Z06, i really cant get warm with the looks of it.
    the rear is so bulky and deformed. I always loved the older front engine corvettes for their elegant, yet aggressive looks with the super long hood.
    i have (for me the best model ever made) black C6 on slightly lowered suspension in my neighbourhood and i always take a long look at it. The design is peak Corvette.
    The new C8 looks like an ugly duckling compared to it and also has to much of the "generic supercar design" to it.
    But its performance is defenitely insane and i respect that. I hope they give Porsche and Ford a good competition in the fight for the new Nordschleife record.

    That place was cool I just can’t recommend to anyone that actually wants to beat on the car or really push it. The Ferrari you had looked /sounded badass ! But for someone that just wants to experience the car in a controlled environment w no plans on doing any hero type stuff it fits the bill. Ron fellows is 10000% better money spent. Regardless it’s fun seeing all those cars in the same place. Would have liked to have tried the go carts!

    Exotics Racing is a lot of fun. I've been to the Speed Vegas location 3 times now. In 22 with friends i drove a Z51. Best lap was a 1:04.4. Last year after my Ron Fellows new Corvette Owners school I drove the Z51 again 😁 Best lap after some professional training was 1:01.3. Ron Fellows was great. Certainly improved my driving. I highly recommend Ron Fellows for anyone who buys a new Corvette. About 2 weeks ago I drove the same Z06. Amazing experience and amazing car. I managed a 58.1 in the Z06. Next time I go to Exotics, I think that I am going to try a P car.
