This experience begins with a private helicopter flight from Manhattan to Monticello Motor Club, an exclusive motorsports country club and private racetrack. Helicopters conveniently land trackside, so guests can check in at the clubhouse right away and begin their “Taste of the Track” introduction to high-performance driving in BMW automobiles. You will be grouped with fellow motorsport enthusiasts and compete in different driving exercises throughout the day on the club's 4-mile road course. Guests also enjoy access to an off-road course utilizing Polaris RZR XP Turbo side-by-sides, a full facility tour, clubhouse amenities and light lunch. The track experience is approximately 8 hours although it can be shortened to 4 hours upon request. Guests return to Manhattan by helicopter, concluding the experience with a quick skyline tour before landing. Experience subject to weather and racetrack availability.

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this racecar driving experience?

A: Yes, the minimum age is typically 18 years old to drive the cars. However, younger guests can still participate if they are riding as a passenger in the instructor's vehicle. Just make sure to check with the provider for specific age requirements before booking!

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the experience?

A: If the weather doesn't cooperate, the experience will likely be rescheduled. Wings Air usually reaches out to let you know the status and they work with you to find an alternate date. So, it’s good to stay flexible!

Q: What should I wear for the driving experience? Any specific requirements?

A: Definitely wear something comfortable! Closed-toe shoes are a must since you'll be driving the BMWs. Dress in layers because it can get a bit warm in the cars. And don’t forget sunglasses for when that sun hits at the track!

Just booked the Racecar Driving Experience! Any tips?

I just booked the Racecar Driving Experience via private helicopter from NYC for my boyfriend’s birthday, and I’m super excited! He loves cars and I think the helicopter ride will blow his mind! Has anyone done this? What was your favorite part? Any tips on what to expect?

Anyone else feel nervous about driving a racecar?

I’m thinking about getting this as a gift for my partner, but I’m worried they might freak out about driving a racecar! How was the experience for those of you who were nervous? Is the instructor helpful?
