Ultra Exclusive Ferrari Club Launches in Las Vegas

Ultra Exclusive Ferrari Club Launches in Las Vegas
This new superpower society is open to just ten individuals who desire access to an authentic racing experience along with the thrills of the high stakes city of Las Vegas.

THE CLUB

Membership to The Club, which starts at $400,000, includes two years of racing and full ownership of a Ferrari F430 GT at the completion of the term.

Club members receive full car warranty including spare parts and labor for two years, insurance, complete car maintenance and vehicle storage. Custom gear, including fireproof racing suit, gloves and shoes, along with a painted helmet designate each elite club member.

Members have access to fifteen track days per year, with 130 dates to select from, and each race day includes a personal instructor and a pit crew for on-track assistance. Upgrades, including shipment of car to other Speedways, road course exclusivity, telemetry technician and evaluation, additional track days and more are available at a supplementary cost, while discounts for Dream Racing experiences, tires and more are offered to members. A personal concierge can assist members during their Las Vegas visit.

THE CAR

The Ferrari F430 GT is race ready, so powerful it is not legal to drive on the street, and membership includes full customization including seat, number and name. This incredible machine boasts a high performance V8 engine, F1 automatic clutch paddle shifts and 512 HP at 8500 RPM. The engine features upgrades you will not find on the road-going street legal Ferrari F430, including an optimized air intake, an enhanced exhaust system and a racing ECU, which combine to provide more power and faster response to the accelerator.

The vehicle comes with one set each of dry and wet 19” slick tires at purchase of membership. The tires are built for performance rather than longevity; resulting in a superior grip ability over road tires.

The specially constructed larger brake rotors with combined six piston calipers and soft compound breaking pads make the brakes of the racing Ferrari F430 GT much more powerful and consistent for the heavy duty racing experience.

Aerodynamics are essential and the rear wing, rear diffuser and front splitter all combine to increase down force for faster speeds and more grip under high speed cornering and acceleration.

The suspension offers many performance enhancements over traditional road sports cars. Most noticeable are the stiffer springs, shock absorbers and the racing anti roll bars, along with a lower ride height and an overall six inch wider front width. All of this works together to significantly improve the handling of the car, not just during cornering, but while braking and accelerating as well.

THE TRACK and FACILITIES

The 1.1 mile track at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway is a permanent circuit designed to professional race specifications and features low, medium and high speed corners and a straight with a maximum speed of approximately 120 miles per hour and lateral G-Forces up to 1.6.

The Dream Racing command center boasts a video classroom, iracing simulators featuring a laser scan of the track and a luxury lounge, all located on the inner circle of the Speedway. Membership includes transportation to the track from Crystals at CityCenter for the member and a guest.

THE TEAM

Boasting a career spanning more than 25 years, Enrico Bertaggia enjoyed great success as an Italian Formula 3 Champion. He also accomplished the feat of winning the Formula 3 race in Monte Carlo and the Formula 3 Championship in Macau in the same year. In addition to being the former course director for the official Ferrari driving school, Bertaggia was the only instructor worldwide to teach on the private Ferrari Enzo Courses.

In ten years of professional racing, Adriano De Micheli participated in more than 100 races and won multiple Italian championships including il Campionato Italiano Turismo and il Campionato Italiano Suoeroriduzione. In addition to his impressive career as a professional race car driver, DeMicheli previously held instructor positions at the official Ferrari, Maserati and Alfa Romeo schools.

Dream Racing, the five-star racing experience that was named to Travel + Leisure Magazine's 101 Places Every Traveler Must Know, offers thrill seekers the opportunity to become a race-car driver for the day, taking a track-ready Ferrari F430 GT for fast laps just like a professional. Former racecar drivers Enrico Bertaggia and Adriano De Micheli have created the ultimate first class experience designed from years spent on the professional racing circuit. Dream Racing, which launched January 2012 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, is the only place in Las Vegas where participants can take to the track at the wheel of a true automotive machine specifically tuned for professional Gran Turismo (GT) Racing. In 2013 they added street legal supercars to the line-up including the Ferrari 458 Italia and Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera, McLaren MP4-12C, and Porsche 911 Carrera S. The experience brings participants as close as possible to the thrill that only professional race car drivers have of taking these incredible machines to their limit. Perfect for individuals or groups, Dream Racing can create custom-racing events for corporate groups as well.
