Remember, it's Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca now. Not sure how that would affect any Chevrolet program for delivery at that track.

Yes, I realized that afterwards. I personally despise Nascar, as it is a fragment of what it was.

I am more of a sports car/open wheel/drag racing fan.

Damn it.. Here we go, looks like I'm going to have to buy another car..

Interesting that they do this now, surprised they didn't offer it sooner honestly

Tr6 · 02-18-2016, 08:32 PM

Curious about the price and if we can do it with a Chevy Spark or a work truck haha.

So... break in the car on a track?

Then we expect your attendance at the next Laps For Charity event @ TMS!

The "drive on the track" thing is probably following a pace car at 55 MPH. Just sayin'.

jdpickering · 02-19-2016, 08:24 AM

Can you take a Rain Check on the on-track experience till after you've broken in your engine properly

Oh, please do send me the details! Hope the time works! Wouldn't mind coming down and bringing my baby down! Especially since it was delivered there!

Would be comical if they say:

"Here is your new Camaro!!! Now go ahead onto DIS, but don't go over 3500 RPM."

I thought about that too. BMW has fleet cars they use for Performance Center Delivery so buyers don't damage their brand new engines right after delivery. Maybe Chevy will have a similar setup once the program details are finalized: flog a fleet vehicle around the track and then take a few easy laps in your new car.

SpeedIsLife · 02-19-2016, 04:41 PM

That's what Dodge does with the SRT track experience too...they've got a fleet of CTF's that they take around to flog on.

Wanted to bump this thread to see if there was any new news. Specifically when are they going to start doing this? And how much?

mrbug111 · 04-27-2016, 04:13 PM

I've been on Daytona with the ZCCA in a 2003 Infiniti G35 - it was disappointing since they limited us to 40 MPH - something about street tires damaging the surface at high speed. I would encourage anyone interested to find out all the details.

thescreensavers · 04-27-2016, 05:02 PM

Track days at Daytona are ~450 it's one of the more expensive tracks to do a HPDE in but if it's much more than that I'd pass.

Eric SS · 04-27-2016, 05:09 PM

I very well may consider this if it's available by the time I order mine. Good info!
