"Since 2003 the F1 Clienti programme has permitted a small group of people to buy F1 cars and has enabled those who bought them earlier use them to the fullest. Corse Clienti makes the car’s owner feel like a real Scuderia Ferrari driver. Owners don’t have to worry about anything except putting on their gloves and helmet, driving and have fun, Corse Clienti does the rest." |
They come to Road Atlanta every year for one of these events and its a real treat to go out and watch and listen. Two years ago, someone brought out Marc Gene (Formula 1 test driver...) and put him in a car. He smashed the lap record at Road A with a time of 1:01.xx.

For reference, Spec e46 cars are turning 1:36-37.
