Exotic Car Test Drive

I've seen a place advertised on Group-On close to Baton Rouge that lets you do a few laps in your choice of cars but I cant find it anymore. I was thinking about setting this up for a freind of mine as a gift. Anyone know the name of the business?

It was total shite. We did it at the Zephyr Field parking lot and I drove a ragged out Lamborghini that was in terrible shape. The Ferrari was broken down. My sister got it for me for Father's Day, so I wasn't that pissed. If I had paid for it I would have been.
ETA: It was Gotham Dream Cars.

Damn that was it. You drove arounda parking lot? I thought they brought you to a race track. Thanks for letting me know. I'll pass on that for sure.

Yeah around the parking lot with some makeshift cone track setup.

Last time we went to Vegas me and a buddy went out to the nascar track and drove a couple exotics around the road course there (which is an actual road course not some cones in a parking lot). It was a freakin blast but not cheap. I drove two cars (Porche Carrera GTS and the 911 GT3) for 10 laps each and rode with some professional in a Z06 set up for drifting for 3 laps. All together it was $600-$700 for the day but well worth it.
The cars there were owned by the company, the cars that you can drive at NOLA motorsports are loaned/leased to them by individual owners so you never know what you are getting.

NOLA Motorsports Park has the exotic supercar driving experience going on all month and into January. It's worth the drive there to do it on a real race track with a very good selection of supercars. Don't know if the specials are still running, but around Black Friday you could get 40% off. Last year around valentine's day they had a buy one/get one half price deal. They come to NOLA pretty often and frequently run special deals.

I looked at some of the prices and $300.00 or less will get you three laps in some pretty nice rides.

I used these guys. It was cheap and fun. Cars were in great shape. I drove a Ferarri 430 and an Audi A-8. LINK

I took my tuned Audi S4 on Laguna Seca and it was absurdly gratifying...
But I've seen all kinds of groupon deals like this.
I saw one for $150 where you can actually pilot a helicopter!

damn, really? I was looking at that on Living Social recently. That sucks.
There is another one they do at the track, and not in a parking lot, that I also so, but on Groupon.

My guess is douchebags who can't afford what they purchased and need help making the notes
