The premise was simple: to deliver their customers the dream of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.virgingifts.com\/las-vegas\/race-a-lamborghini\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">driving an exotic car on a real race track<\/a>. Since then, Exotics Racing has grown quickly, adding to its fleet of fantasy cars and delivering the dream to tens of thousands of happy customers each year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What prompted the idea for opening a new location? <\/strong>After five wildly successful years of sharing a passion for supercars in Las Vegas, the team at Exotics Racing extended their fleet of supercars to Los Angeles and set up a second location at Auto Club Speedway in March 2014. An extensive selection of vehicles is available to choose from at the private track on the grounds of the famed Auto Club Speedway \u2013 less than an hour\u2019s drive from downtown Los Angeles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Why Auto Club Speedway? <\/strong>It was important for Exotics Racing to choose a location that was easy for customers to access. Auto Club Speedway is only about 45 minutes from downtown LA and just 10 minutes from the Ontario International Airport. Plus, it has a long history of serious racing. <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Roger_Penske\">Roger Penske<\/a> was one of the key figures in its development. NASCAR races there; IndyCar has also been featured at Auto Club Speedway. It\u2019s a bonus to us that we give customers the chance to have their Exotics Racing experience on the grounds of such a storied facility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-5797\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Welcome-to-Exotics-Racing-supplier-spotlight.jpg\" alt=\"Welcome to Exotic's Racing - supplier spotlight\" width=\"237\" height=\"158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Welcome-to-Exotics-Racing-supplier-spotlight.jpg 360w, https:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Welcome-to-Exotics-Racing-supplier-spotlight-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Welcome-to-Exotics-Racing-supplier-spotlight-83x55.jpg 83w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 237px) 100vw, 237px\"><strong>What were some of the challenges Exotics Racing faced when first opening in California? <\/strong>It takes time to develop a customer base in any new market, and we are still evolving and adapting our business for Los Angeles. In Las Vegas, for example, we see a lot of bachelor and bachelorette parties. It\u2019s no surprise that our customer profile in Los Angeles isn\u2019t the same. We have done some really <a href=\"http:\/\/www.virgingifts.com\/los-angeles\/race-a-lamborghini\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fun corporate events in LA<\/a>, and we find we\u2019re seeing more people local to the area coming to drive the cars.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What would you recommend to other companies looking to open a new location? <\/strong>Los Angeles is a fantastic place to do business. There are more than 12 million people there, making it the second-largest metropolitan area in the country (behind New York). And it has a fantastic car culture, which is obviously tremendously important to us. People there are very passionate about cars, and that has made us feel at home from day one.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What is Exotics Racing\u2019s secret to success? <\/strong>But no matter the location, the secret to success for Exotics Racing is the core of the concept: giving drivers the chance to realize a childhood dream of driving an incredible car on a <em>real<\/em> race track.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5798\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Porsche-and-Italia.jpg\" alt=\"race an exotic car\" width=\"576\" height=\"367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Porsche-and-Italia.jpg 576w, https:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Porsche-and-Italia-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.virgingifts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Porsche-and-Italia-86x55.jpg 86w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\"><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<br>\n<\/p><div class=\"blog-experience-finder\" id=\"experience-finder-9J2FMC2F\">\n    <div class=\"form-group form-group-regions selectric-theme-flydown\">\n        <label> Region:<\/label>\n        <select class=\"finder_regions\" name=\"finder_regions\" required>\n        <\/select>\n    <\/div>\n            <div class=\"form-group selectric-theme-flydown form-group-categories\">\n            <label> Categories:<\/label>\n            <select class=\"finder_categories\" name=\"finder_categories\">\n            <\/select>\n        <\/div>\n        <button type=\"submit\">\n        Go!\n    <\/button>\n<\/div>\n\n<script type=\"application\/javascript\">\n  $j(document).ready(function () {\n    var htmlId = \"9J2FMC2F\"\n    var showCategories = \"true\" === 'true'\n\n    var categories = _.sortBy(Cloud.getConfig('categories'), 'name');\n    var regions = _.filter(Cloud.getConfig('regions'), function (region) {\n      return region.name.toLowerCase() !== 'national'\n    });\n\n    var regionsOptionsMarkup = _.map(regions, function(region) {\n      var stateCode = '';\n      if(typeof region.state_code !== 'undefined') {\n        stateCode = region.state_code + ' - ';\n      }\n      return '<option value=\"'+ region.name +'\">' +\n        stateCode + region.name +\n        '' ;\n    });\n    regionsOptionsMarkup.shift()\n    regionsOptionsMarkup.unshift('<option disabled selected value=\"\"> Select a region');\n\n    \/\/ Add the options to the select\n    $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .finder_regions').append(regionsOptionsMarkup);\n\n    $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .finder_regions').selectric({\n      \"arrowButtonMarkup\": '<i class=\"fa fa-angle-down selectric-button\">',\n      onChange: function (element) {\n        removeError();\n      }\n    });\n\n\n    if (showCategories) {\n\n      var categoriesOptionsMarkup = _.map(categories, function (cat) {\n        return '<option value=\"' + cat.url_key + '\">' +\n          cat.name +\n          '';\n      });\n      categoriesOptionsMarkup.unshift('<option disabled selected value=\"\"> Select a category');\n      $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .finder_categories').append(categoriesOptionsMarkup);\n      $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .finder_categories').selectric({\n        \"arrowButtonMarkup\": '<i class=\"fa fa-angle-down selectric-button\">'\n      });\n    }\n\n    function renderError() {\n      $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .form-group-regions').addClass('invalid');\n      $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .form-group-regions').append('<small class=\"error\">Please select a region.')\n    }\n\n    function removeError() {\n      $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .form-group-regions').removeClass('invalid');\n      $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .form-group-regions small').remove();\n    }\n\n    $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' button').click(function (evt) {\n      evt.preventDefault();\n\n      var regionText = $j('#experience-finder-' + htmlId + ' .form-group-regions .selectric p.label').text();\n      var categoryText = showCategories ?
