Fast Lane for Father
Fittipaldi Exotic Driving is offering an Ultimate Fittipaldi Experience for fathers, June 23-24 (Thursday and Friday after Father’s Day). The exclusive first-class experience at Texas Motor Speedway features pro-racer Christian Fittipaldi. For more information or to reserve a spot, call (281) 584-6618.
Also, through June 19, FED is offering a 20 percent discount on all driving experiences with the code DRIVE20. Also, gift certificates purchased in this time will reflect a 20 percent discount when a driving experience is booked.
But, it doesn’t have to be a dream. Champion race car driver Christian Fittipaldi and supercar expert Bill Scott teamed up to open Fittipaldi Exotic Driving with year-round tracks in Austin, Fort Worth and Houston. By selling the experience – 6 laps in your choice of vehicle – FED is making fast-car dreams come true. So put on a racing suit and helmet (provided) and hold on!
There’s also the option of a Race Ride, where you experience the speed and performance of a race car in the hands of a professional driver. Both are thrilling.
“Some people only daydream of handling an exotic supercar worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. To them, it’s a bucket list item,” says co-owner Fittipaldi. “Through FED, we are making dreams into reality.”
Scott brings nearly 20 years of direct experience with racing and exotic cars. He spent years with Petty Enterprises, a leading NASCAR team, and nearly a decade as an executive with Richard Petty Driving Experience and Exotic Driving Experience.
Fittipaldi is recognized as a leader in the racing world. He is the current two-time defending champion of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar series and has competed in the IndyCar series, CART series, Formula 1 and NASCAR.

The experience begins with classroom instruction detailing the supercar, safety instructions, the course, paddle shifting and communication with the in-car driving instructor. After this introduction, drivers get to know the car they’ve selected as well as their instructor. Now’s a great time for photos with the car. Finally it’s time to drive the sports car on the road course. Drivers must be at least 18 years old with a valid driver’s license; or a minimum of 14 years old for Race Rides in an authentic Porsche racecar.
