There are two track driving companies in Vegas. Exotics Racing is the bigger and more well known one, and there's also Dream Racing. Both are located at the speedway. (There are other type of driving options too, like a Nascar one.)

I've gone to both a few times. It usually comes down to the instructors, and as mentioned above, how you drive. I've noticed that for me, anyway, the Dream Racing instructors seem to really let me push the cars harder. YMMV.

The main difference is Exotics Racing has the discovery laps, where their driver takes you around the track so you get more familiar with it. For Dream Racing, you sit in a driving simulator, where you practice driving on their track first.

The last time I was there, I purchased 10 laps with one car at Dream Racing. The instructor gave me the option of running all 10 laps at once, or running 5, and then stopping, so he could give me additional feedback and tips. I chose the latter option.

Either way, though both are pricey, it's a complete blast. I usually just stick to the slower cars now, because the straightaway isn't super long anyway, and the slow cars are still pretty fast.

If you book more than one car, they'll usually remind you, but if they don't, I suggest you drive the slower car first.
