Bill is so smooth on the track. I would have done this event but I have the M Drivers package and I get a session as part of my purchase.

You really get a sense for how hard he's hitting it when he catches up with noob traffic. Way to assault those curbs, Bill!

I got to drive with Bill for 2 laps at Monticello at the M Track days in the M5. The guy is an awesome driver, he actually had me a little scared on one part of the track. I got a video(well 2) but they are on my facebook. M Trackdays full day event was WELL worth the money.

Keep in mind also that those "noob" drivers aren't the typical ones at the half day events, there was a noticeable difference in overall skill level at the full day event. Riding with Bill does leave you feeling like such a novice.

Do you know that Monticello is a private track with a membership of 130K+? I think they very rarely, if at at all, have open days?

After competing in shifter Karts I always see a video like this an laugh. This is literally like driving in slow motion. Don't get me wrong, Im sure the passengers have a blast but this is so far from actual racing. He's not even using the whole width of the track.

Too bad it wasn't the full track and Bill driving 10/10 without traffic. Still, great too see how this monster handles the turns.
I was out there in my M4 last month for the first time and loved it! Great track and staff! Too rich for my blood tho....

Lulz

But credit where it’s due: 3 slow laps without Drivetrain Malfunction is still impressive.

When do they have open days? I was under the impression that it is not possible to rent access, and you must come in with a member or as part of a corporate (or similar) event. In fact, their brochures emphasize this.

They have a "taste of the track" days. Non-members can pay I think like $3k for a day. And use their fleet of cars. Not cheap but better than a membership lol
