    I got my husband 5 laps in a Ferrari for his birthday via Groupon. You can schedule a time slot…read moreonline, but be forewarned that it took about 1.5 hours after his scheduled time to get into a Ferrari. They definitely have a well-oiled machine here. You sign in and accept or decline extra insurance before you actual see the track - and realize that you really do not have to get extra insurance because there's no way you're going to lose control of the car. Their professional photos (at extra cost) are nice, but if you come equipped with your own camera and are ready to shoot, you can easily get a similar photo. There's a mini safety discussion - well before you actually get into a car - where they try to off one of the less desired cars onto you so your wait is shorter. (It works for some.) In the car, there is someone else driving with you, and he is doing the paddle shifting for you. The whole experience goes by in a wink. I think my husband would definitely rate his overall experience higher than I am, but I had different expectations about the spectator experience. Be ready to wait. Be in the moment as much as you can, because it's over very quickly.

    Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park in Connecticut hosts a variety of "Exotic" and "Corvette"…read moreexperiences thru their in-house company. They also do a Miata Race School, complete with the option to rent one of their Spec Miatas for the day. You can also bring your own racecar, but don't show up in an uncaged track day car with regular seats and belts and expect to run it. Great day, extremely enlightening, and I appreciated being able to drive someone else's car for the day without needing to worry about prepping my own. Wheel to wheel racing is intense. And the instructors really gave us hell throughout the day. Hanging in our blind spots, running three wide down the straight, inches from either side of us, just generally showing off and trying to make us uncomfortable. At the end of the day you pass or fail. If you pass, you're eligible to submit for an SCCA Novice Racing Permit with which you can race in almost any SCCA event. Race three events within two years and you can apply for your Full Competition License. Not sure whether or not I'll go further down the rabbit hole, but it was really fun to check out. All-in, with a rental car and $1k deductible insurance the total cost was about $1,300 for the day. It's about $500 or $600 if you bring your own race car. But again, it's got to be a race car, not a track car.
