The winner will take control of the wheel and enjoy driving these super-cars at Las Vegas Speedway. Then, as an added bonus, they?ll circle the Las Vegas Speedway with a professional driver in a Porsche GT3 RS.


?I was as excited as a kid when I went to the SEMA show and then spent a day driving five dream cars,? said Tom Shinn, winner of the 2010 Dream Ride Tour Contest. ?I met the staff and with their help, learned the special driving specifications and handling techniques for each vehicle.
