It costs about 14 euros, or approximately $ 15, per minute to run Lamborghini on public roads in Northern Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region. It seems excessive at a place where a couple of coins buy a glass of world -class wine. However, even more trouble is that the experience is really worth money.
Filling a supercar pedal for metal is an indisputable, vital at the level of the intestine. During my own supercar test drive, Chapron asked me to stop shouting with joy in the passenger seat.
twice.
I did not even realize that I was making a voice.
Lamborghini, Ferrari, Masareti and high-end motorcycle brand Ducati are the most recognizable names among many manufacturers, sometimes called Italy’s “Motor Valley”. Most of the bologna’s one-hour drive is within, making it possible to create weekend-long holiday crash courses (intention of punishment) in the niche-but the world of global-superiors.
Most companies provide similar experiences – factory tour, driving simulator, vintage car exposes and branded gift shops are almost omnipresent. Motor valley factories are similar to Amazon Warehouse, at least at first glance. Sterile overhead lights mostly illuminate the gray interiors in which the assembly lines of the S-shaped weave in the locations of the huge, open-storey work. In the matching of industrial uniforms, small teams of workers were assigned, often focusing on narrow tasks – pasting a door panel here, sealing a windshield there, constantly tightening and retiring various nuts and bolts. Whirring drills, cranks wrench and rubber mallets bunning everything gives almost music soundtracks.
The Ferrari campus in Manelo seems like a theme park and, among all the supercar destinations in the region, seems to attract the most wide range of tourists. Company-themed cafes serve as a waiting room for all from teenagers bored with the next door, who are playing Pokémon, for enthusiasts on Formula 1 history. Most couples look at an automobile Aficionado and an accidentally interested partner that Aficionado is trying to convert into Ferrari Fandum, sometimes with success.
Ferrari is definitely near a special romance. After all, the only Italian luxury car manufacturer is still running at the Formula 1 level. Ferrari also currently works as an independent company, while Lamborghini, Masareti and Ducati are all non-Issinated corporations of Non-Issed Corporations. Finally, the colorful life of the founder Enzo Ferrari has been depicted in several Hollywood films in the last decade.
But visitors do not actually enter a factory on Ferrari “Factory Tour”. Instead, they operate around the company’s premises in a shuttle bus, while a guide states what is happening in various, most nondscripts.
Lamborghini’s factory tour offers the best round experience. Cars vary in color from matte black to Mac-And-Paneer Orange to highlighter Yellow and look like spaceships. Supercar-to-B, Atop Automatic, GPS-Navigated, Vehicles, Crroll among the workstation which are the employee of the activity of the activity.
Lamborghini’s factory also benefits from the bull bar to its location across the road, an otherwise anonymous cafe where the employees of the company often stay for an aspresso and in my limited experience, are quite happy to chat with eager visitors.
Masareti offers the most comprehensive factory tour in about 90 minutes. A standout of additional time is a trip to the engine testing lab of Masareti. In a room there, the rest of the vehicle is separated from the vehicle (as well as the engineer testing them), supercar engines are pushed to their boundaries by a computer program designed to repeat extreme driving situations. Is isolated in their test rooms, engines are connected to enough tubes and wires to give the proceedings a science-fi wind.
Perhaps inadvertently, the Ducati factory is the smallest in the bunch. Tight and less well lit, the tight quarters of the motorcycle manufacturer yet allow visitors to check various construction stages. Vehicles like the same robot seen in the Lamborghini factory are present here (both Lamborghini and Ducati are subsidiaries of the Volkswagen Group).
In addition to the factory trips, each company also offers public-honor exhibitions that are present somewhere at the intersection of the museum and showroom. Lack of Ferrari Factory Experience is offset by its top notch museums. Everything is held in a chronological and curated well – the collection of Formula 1 recipes of the Maranello Museum, especially, is peerless among museums. (Ferrari operates a second, small museum in Modena focused on its founder Enzo Ferrari).
Exhibitions of the other two car companies are more clockwise towards the “showroom”. Interestingly-stored collection of Lamborghini’s classic model is complemented by an attractive array of company-theme artifacts donated by Lamborghini dealers worldwide. For example, the Baku dealership has sent an Azerbaijani carpet characterized by the company’s bull logo.
Like its Ferrari equivalent, the Ducati Museum is well organized and Motogp (motorcycle equal to the motorcycle of Formula 1) and historical interest individual motorcycles have many racing bikes in the history of individual motorcycles, such as the aerodionamic children who set 46 world speed records a day in 1956, especially from which one of them appreciates the touch of this touch, especially one of them. Following the performance of the bike’s throat, the performance of the demonstration.
In fact, young children love auto showrooms and museums throughout the board. As it turns out, “Hey mother, look at this car!” Language obstacles are easily understood.
Supercar, of course, enhance moral dilemmas by the existing, and can feel the factories who visit factories producing gas-gazelling machines in the era of climate change. (A relevant one side: all manufacturers are in some stages of developing electric vehicles.)
Even more specific supercar is the level of fundamental wealth for the survival of the industry, as cars sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Potential customer wears watches that can pay the entire family students loans, they can be seen with sales staff as their minders. It seems to spend time in lying down toy toys by ultravethe – okay, slightly gross. At least before.
Cars represent a peak of human achievement in a specific area and can be purely appreciated for their beauty and power. For better or worse, this is best behind the appreciation wheel. Many outfits provide supercar-driving experience, although several costs several hundred (or even thousand) dollars. Fortunately, low cost options are available.
In addition to the top notch espresso, a 10-minute test drive is offered in a supercar rental service in the bull bar and, as it is revealed, there is enough time to convert the entire intellectual appreciation of the supercar in 600 seconds into intestinal affection.
Even when the Lamborghini bus puts the bus in the village around the factory, it seems different. You are sitting very little. Everything is foreign, from steering wheel that looks like a video game controller, attractive dashboard display.
For the first few minutes of the ride, you may feel slowly inching around the village that you have been included in paying € 14 per minute to run golf carts. Then you come out of the arrow-site, two-lane highways and the guide in the passenger seat says, “Okay, now you can go fast.”
A supercar driving (in my case, a Lamborghini Hurakan Spider) is a multiseengery experience. Before your inn, one partition is compressed with the enlarged G -blind of acceleration, the roar of your ear car is filled with the sound of the V -10 engine. This is an unprecedented, napped noise.
Indications along the road (which, it is worth repeating, is a public road, which is complete with upcoming traffic) passes through a increasing rate, increasing the feeling of high speed. And when you feel that whatever you have paid, you have found it, the guide says, “If you want, you can go fast.” After an incredible confirmation, you then stop the pedal with all the weight of your body. The signs pass rapidly, the upcoming traffic is blurred, and the engine is even more angry.
“Okay, and start slowing now,” you have been instructed, bored tones may be associated with getting help in an office. A quick look at the passenger seat confirms that this is just another blass day for your guide. However, you are adrenal. Hyper-Adrenized, even-even another fast session increases this feeling on the way back to the village.
A ticket for the Ferrari Museum allows you to run a car for 15 minutes on Autodromeo de Modena Racetrack., During his successor, Autodromeo not only hosted several Formula 1 race, but also served as a test track for Ferrari and Masareti. The original track has been closed for decades, but it is still worth taking the new autodromeo on its proposal.
You have to bring your own car-in my case, one of the cheapest-you can-rant 100 horsepower hatchback (for comparison, Lamborghini I run 640 horsepower). What do you lose in power, however, you make in freedom. I was the only driver present in the morning, I took my turn and, after a remarkable brief security orientation, I had myself track.
Despite accelerating slow rates miserable compared to Lamborghini a day earlier, the will————a mixeds out of each lap, with a congestion of wil-the-car-fly-over turn and hyperfocus, corresponding to the congestion of almost a supercar.
