Lamborghini Track Event at Infineon Raceway

Infineon Raceway was transformed into a "Bullring" on May 20, 2011 when British Motor Car Distributors and Los Gatos Luxury Cars held their latest Track Day at the racing circuit near Sears Point. The exclusive event was co-hosted by Hooked on Driving (HOD), a well-renowned provider of high- performance driving programs.

On a beautiful, crisp Sonoma morning, 17 clients and their guests were able to experience their supercars like never before. Hooked on Driving's expert instructors, including founder David Ray, provided coaching to our clients on high-performance driving techniques. In three track sessions, at 25 minutes each, our customers were given ample opportunity to practice their advanced car control skills that are essential to mastering the challenging track.

In addition, British Motor Car Distributors and Los Gatos Luxury Cars brought the newest Lamborghini models to the venue: Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performante, Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Bicolore, and Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera. For the first time, our clients were able not only to get up close and personal to the stunning new members of the Raging Bulls family, but also to get in ride-alongs and test drives around the famed Infineon racing circuit.

What made the event even more extraordinary was the presence of Lamborghini factory driver Richard Antinucci. He brilliantly demonstrated the true capabilities of the new Lamborghini models and helped our clients unleash the full potential of their high-speed Lamborghini vehicles.

The intense 60-lap morning track session was followed by a relaxing luncheon at Jacuzzi Winery in Sonoma. Wine Valley Catering outdid themselves in a delicious 5-course feast that was followed by an afternoon tasting of some of Jacuzzi's most exclusive wine offerings.

From adrenaline-fueled track driving to lounging with a glass of Sonoma wine, it was a great event in which all the participants enjoyed themselves to the max. Even Lamborghini factory driver Robert Antinucci was impressed: "I've done a lot of these (events), no dealer has done it quite as elaborate as you guys have."
