$199 for a 2.5-Hour Cadillac CTS-V Experience ($500 Value)
With hands tightly gripping the cool leather of the steering wheel, customers guide the 556-hp Cadillac CTS-V across a 1.9 mile portion of Monticello Motor Club's private track, featuring 320 feet of elevation changes, 10 turns, and two 2,200-foot straightaways. The sleek, high-performance vehicle hurdles from 0–60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, letting drivers quench their appetite for speed as they sprint down straightaways and power-slide around hairpin turns. Normally closed to non-members, the driving club will be open on select Tuesdays exclusively for the experience offered in this Groupon, including an orientation, introductory passenger lap, and five 1.9-mile laps as a driver.
Monticello Motor Club
Carved through 175 acres of wooded terrain, Monticello Motor Club's 4.1-mile, race-grade asphalt track gets drivers' blood pumping with 22 turns, 1.5 miles of straight-aways, and 450 feet of elevation changes. The centerpiece of the private club, the track is the brainchild of international driving champion Brian Redman and track architect Bruce Hawkins, who crafted the winding raceway to test professional drivers while keeping it safe enough for first-time racers. The sound of growling engines echoes across the tree-lines on a daily basis, as club members barrel down the track in luxury sedans and SR3 racecars.
