Who doesn’t love a hot ride?

While most of the things that will be covered here at Groomify aren’t mean to be uber-expensive or completely out there, there comes a time that it can’t be missed. One thing that absolutely qualifies is something that has been in my drafts for weeks now, and I just got another swift kick in the rear - the one that isn’t the almost daily mention by Craig Carton on WFAN’s Boomer & Carton Show on the morning drive - to point to Vulcan Motor Club. On Friday, Gear Patrol’s Marc Arevalo dropped dime on what appears to be one of the more badass opportunities to drive almost any killer ride you can think of - but it’ll cost you.
With annual plans starting at $9,500 - which gets you 10 days of driving cars like the Lamborghini Gallardo or Audi R8, and 1,000 miles - and going all the way up to the Platinum plan at $25,000, getting you 40 days, 4,000 miles, vehicle delivery and up to 7-day “rentals,” it’s not for the faint of heart - or wallet.
That said, however, Vulcan offers one badass gift that I’d either pay for myself, beg and plead for as a wedding gift for myself, or perhaps get for my best man. Check it out - it’s the Wind and Fire Tour. Wind and Fire, for $1,195 for one person to get 5 hours of driving, switching to a new car every thirty minutes, or $598 for each person in a pair (you and your dad, or best man, for instance?) where you swap cars, and positions, every thirty minutes. I don’t know about you, but that’s pretty fantastic, and $600 isn’t unreasonable at all. Okay, so you’ve gotta get to Chester, NJ to start it all off, but if it takes you on some of the roads that I’m guessing it does within a five-hour circuit in the area, it’s going to be well worth it. These badboys are selling like hotcakes for 2008, and July 23 is the next “open” date you can get your butt in a seat for.




Nice! Didn’t know there was something like this local in NJ. A friend is close with the owners of Gotham Dream Cars and I’ve been trying to get my Dad to to this with me for a while (he’s a Porsche fan). Vulcan has the GT but if you’re looking for a larger range of Ferrari’s & Lambo’s, check out Gotham.
