500 for half a day
1500 for a full day

That kind of $$$$ gets me a lot of track time in my own car or drive theirs for one day. Hmm decisions, decisions.

FYI - I looked into this last month when I heard about it. The half-day experience is only three lead-and-follow sessions, it does not include any actual open track time in the cars.

While I think it would be fun to drive one, doing so at 70% in a conga line ain't worth $500 to me.

Tempting but that's 2 sets of tires of the Miata which is like, hrmm 4 seasons worth of autocross rubber :)

Also it's the s/c Ecotec engine not the 300hp supercharged Civic Type R engine and it's on A048's not true R comps. I bet it still provides for plenty of code brown moments on track though :)
