Overall a great experience. I attended as part of a corporate group and we did the 16 Lap Ferrari experience (two sets of 8 laps). We were treated very well the entire time. The staff was very courteous and always asking if we needed anything. A+ experience overall.

The only negative I saw was they didn't give you your lap times by default. Even the local indoor go-kart racing track I live near does that. Knowing your lap times is one of the most important things to know if you are taking this experience seriously! I only knew mine because I happened to ask my driver. I had a good driver and he was keeping track. Others in my group never got their times and the drivers didn't tell them. It'd be great to see your lap time, with columns to compare to others in your group, best lap times from anyone that day, or best drivers of all time.

This is a very serious racing experience and would not recommend it for someone who is just looking to tool around in an exotic car. This experience is about road racing and truly pushing these cars to their limits. The instructors will be barking in your ear and pushing you to do better as you head around the course. They are not your friend, think of them as a drill-sergeant. It's an intense, pressure-cooker environment. You'll truly understand racing IS a sport after just 8 laps and you're exhausted. If you can't handle that, stick to go-karts. You'll save money and have more fun.

Lastly, FYI to the Dream Racing crew you should evaluate all your video cameras to make sure they are working properly. When I got home, my SD card was blank. I had to use an undelete tool to try and scrub the card and was able to recover 1 video, however when I get to the 7 min mark out of 9 mins the file is corrupted. At least I got something recovered. I was in Car 9 I believe. My boss was in a different car and he also had corruption issues with his video.
