Default Question for business study.. POLL

2 different cars are available to test drive on a autocross course.
You would place a reservation, and pay for time to drive one of these vehicles on a closed course. 1 hour of drive time around a 2.2 mile track.

2005 350z Twin Turbo 450hp
2004 Z06 Corvette 450hp

similar to a Driving school, but instead of learning, it would just be for fun.
any advice or ideas, would be helpful.

Could use this as just a day to go have some fun at the track, take out some business clients, or give a birthday gift to someone who enjoys cars.

HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY FOR THIS ???

I'd pay 150-200 tops and that would involve driving both cars in the 1 hour allowed

well if it was just rental to drive around you can rent a new vet z06 or even a viper for 450 a day and take it to the track if you wanted to and beat the hell out of it. so if it was an all day rental with an hour of track time i would put the value at well 450-500 bucks.

but then again i wouldn't rent a car just to take out on a track, maybe a week/weekend rental if i couldn't figure out if i liked the car enough to buy it or not

Id rather drive my own car... buttt If I didnt have a track worthy car I think It might be worth it... I think its almost 300 to go to sebring with SAFE and have an instructor ride with you.. Someone correct me if im wrong because Im honestly just guessing, but I think that gets you the entire day, but its your car.. So id probly pay around 150 for an hour in a track prepped z06 definitaly not a 350z though.

If I could drive BOTH of them then I'd pay 200-500, all depending on what else I get out of it, as in a T shirt, meal, rides/talking to professional drivers, different courses etc

Most have a 100 mile limit. Over 100 miles gets expensive.
