Has anyone done this? I would like to hear about the day if it is going to be a fun day. Of course, I'll drive down my XF. It is cleaned and Waxed.
I am scheduled to be there this Saturday the 12th at Englishtown NJ (Raceway Park).
I believe the testing vehicles include BMW, Cadillac, and Lexus. Let me know if anyone in the area is going to be there.

Porter... I did that exact test last year here in DC. BMW 5 series vs. Cadillac STS, Lexus vs. CTS. the set up two mini road courses, you get one lap in each car. You write an eval after each ride. You will drive with a full house (2 other testers plus an instructor).

It was definitely fun and I'd do it again.
