Aston, Ferrari, or Lambo?

Me and buddies signed up for this... I'm leaning towards Lambo for raw and brute power. Can't wait!

Ferrari is the obvious choice. Lambos are fast in a straight line but pigs on a track compared to any other supercar.

Aston Martin, hands down. Ferrari is nicer than Lambo, but Aston has some class.

Oh, and that green is just amazing.

Tough call for me really. I love Lamborghini, but Ferrari really will handle better on the track. If I was buying the car, I'd more than likely go open-top Lambo, but for the track run, Ferrari all the way.

If he was renting a car to cruise around for the weekend on the streets, sure. But for a track event? I just don't see how there's any question.

I'd still take the Aston. If I were rich, I'd own an Aston Martin any day before a Ferrari/Lambo. I guess that is why I'd pick the Aston. The V12 Vanquish is my dream car (in British Racing Green).

I'd just like to get my car out on Summit Point. When I lived in the DC area in the 80s I loved going to Summit to see IMSA and SCCA events. I had a 944 then. It was a great handling car but not too fast. My 930 is pretty well modified and puts down 390 RWHP. The inherent 930 oversteer is almost non existent with 315/35Z17s on the back. But to get back to the original question, I'd have to pick the Ferrari of the three listed.

I'm a poor homeless stumblebum but I have a few friends with buckets of bucks. They have had Ferraris and Lambos and are also pretty good drivers. I can drive circles around them in a Porsche.

This offer still looks like fun. Summit is fun (I've done well there in the past) but not one of my favorite tracks.

My favorite is Road Atlanta but I think it's because I live close by and have been there so many times. Barber is where I'd like to go that I've never been. I toured their museum years ago when it was in B'ham. I've heard great things about the new track and museum.
