Description

Race like the pros! Strap on your racing helmet, buckle-up into a six-point racing harness, and prepare to go on a wild ride on The Autobahn Country Club's road course in Joliet, Illinois. The Autobahn is a private racing and car enthusiasts club with no speed limits, 24 adrenile-packed corners, and no limit on driving fun! Your steed for this adventure will be a race-bred, not-street-legal Lotus 2-Eleven (a race-track-only open roof race car imported from the UK on a limited basis) driven by Bill Howard, a long-time road racer and member of the Autobahn. You will be Bill's guest for lunch and (at least - depending on the condition of your heart) one ride of 25 thrilling minutes wrapped in a carbon fibre Recaro racing seat on the Autobahn course. On course, Bill will talk you through the course and the corners through an in-helmet intercom, and he'll also provide you with a video of your ride for posterity and bragging rights as well as an Autobahn hat.
