| Supercar Track Day Poll
The Group A and B is only a $30 price difference. Same laps, same rules.
This is a Birthday Present and just curious on what you guys would choose and why.
thanks for your input.

Maybe it's just the 7 year old kid in me, but Ferrari is the clear choice for me. It's iconic

I choose R8 just coz the person you are giving this gift to might not be able to handle a RWD only super car.
either R8 or Gallardo. With the R8 being arguably milder.

I did the SLS in Vegas!
It was great! But I have done the Gallardo and then 430 too.

the 612 and SLS are more GT cars so I wouldn't choose it for track. F430 is the clear choice for a track day.

So this gift allows the recipient be one of those Mainlander kids for a day, but in a 100% legal context  ?
Anyways, sounds like an awesome experience, and I would go for the Murcielago personally. I'm not sure how different it would be compared to the Gallardo, but IMO the Murc is the cooler car.

I voted F430. It's the most track-oriented car on the list so it's probably the most fun.

Hmmm if I were to choose I would take the Murcielago, not for speed or anything but for the lone epicness of the ride and drive Posted via RS Mobile | |

I think it depends on your friend. A true Tifosi would take an old F355 over a Murc or SLS. Some people have a love affair with a certain car and they'd rather drive it even if it's slower than others. For a 10 lap, non-competitive fun fest, I'd probably opt for an SLS or Murc, simply because they are so rare compared to the others. They may not be track oriented car as much as some others, but ANYTHING can be fun around a track and it would be more for the experience of driving the car, than how well it actually drives. The only reason I'd pass on the F430f1 is I've already had a chance to flog one, so given the choice I'd like something else, not that I have anything bad to say about the car.. it's nothing short of awrsome.

F430 or the murc. F430 is a fun car to drive and the murc is awd and was the flagship car for Lamborghini. SLS is heavy and still just a Mercedes, rather drive a c63 black.

What I would choose to drive may differ on what my brother would want to try. Personally I'd go for the Merc but try and find out if the person you're giving this to has a specific preference for a type or style of car.
