FRIDAY 15:30 SPEEDVEGAS
Track With time scarce, I need to shake off my jet lag fast. At 225km/h to be precise, in a canary yellow Ferrari 258 Italia that somehow manages to stick to the bitumen as my calmly sadistic driver, Tony, repeatedly takes us to the brink of disaster on turn after hair-raising turn. Tony had told me to give him a thumbs up or down and he’d adjust his speed accordingly. With the needle nudging the limit thumbs up certainly isn’t the sane option but I boldly resist the urge to slow him down.
Afterwards, Tony is mildly impressed that I didn’t “scream like this big bodybuilder guy we had in last week” but assures me the car had more in it if I’d requested it.
A rev-head’s paradise, SpeedVegas is stocked with a range of sleek car porn you can take for a spin around the circuit. I thought I’d be better off in the safe hands of a guy who once went around it 250 times in a day. Maybe that was a mistake.
FRIDAY 19:00 Vegas Golden Knights V Ottawa Senators, T-Mobile Arena
