Sign up, show up, race a Lamborghini

Lamborghini announces new Super Trofeo series in North America.

So, you’re a rich amateur racing driver sitting at home, wishing you could get a ride in a series with some amazing machines where all you have to do is pay, show up and drive with full track support. Starting up your own team is a bit too labor (and cost) intensive – and besides, you really want to be piloting a top-level race car, just like people with actual talent do. 

And maybe you don’t have time to be gallivanting around the country the entire year, either. Never fear, because Lamborghini has answered your wishes, putting together the five-race Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo series, starting July 5th at Lime Rock Park in Connecticut.

So what does it cost and what do you get for your money? For $35,000 per race weekend ($17,500 per driver for shared entries), you get a V10-powered 570-horsepower, all-wheel-drive Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Super Trofeo race car ready for the track.
