“The Drive,” GM’s outdoor “autotainment” driving experience is set to open in Las Vegas at the
Sahara Hotel & Casino April 10, and GM wants you to start planning it into your next trip to Sin City.

The Drive includes two separate driving courses on the 11-acre site, a high-performance loop (pictured above) and an
off-road adventure. According to Steve Tihanyi, GM’s director of marketing and entertainment alliances (!),
“‘The Drive’ represents a significant marketing opportunity for General Motors, allowing us to
showcase our products in a unique fashion that will provide a fun-filled time for the millions of people who live in or
visit Las Vegas.”

A $10 ticket gets you a ride in your choice of the Chevy Corvette coupe and
convertible, Pontiac GTO, Cadillac CTS-V, Pontiac Solstice roadster, Cadillac STS-V, Saab 9-3 convertible, and Chevy
SSR on the performance track, or the HUMMER H2, HUMMER H2 SUT, mid-size HUMMER H3, 2007 Cadillac Escalade, 2006 Chevy
Silverado Diesel and the 2007 Chevy Tahoe on one of the two dirt tracks.

If you’re planning a trip to
Vegas, you can get tickets to The Drive online at VEGAS.com or LasVegas.com.
