Road and Track Detroit City Airport Performance Car: A Thrilling Experience

Imagine being surrounded by some of the world's most elite performance cars, with the roar of turbofans and screech of tires filling the air as you take them for a spin on a real runway. This is what awaits at the Motown Mile, located at Detroit City Airport, where a group of 13 new or significantly revised cars for 2013 gathered to separate the exceptional from the merely good.

The event was designed to push these incredible machines to their limits, with a full day of thrashing around the runway and taxiways. The lineup featured some of the most aggressive and stylish cars in the world, including the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series, the elegant Jaguar F-type, and many more. As I gazed out at the impressive collection, I couldn't help but feel like a child again, surrounded by the stuff of my dreams.

But before we began our high-speed adventures, we had to sign some remarkably comprehensive waivers to ensure everyone's safety. And with good reason - the runway is active, shared with real aircraft taking off and landing during our test runs. It was a thrilling experience, to say the least, as we took turns lining up alongside Gulfstream jets and other planes on the adjacent runway.

The Ferrari F12berlinetta, new Corvette, and Competition Pack BMW M6 were just a few of the cars that got my heart racing as I contemplated defying authority and taking off alongside those massive aircraft. Of course, our priorities lay with the performance cars, but it was hard not to feel like we were part of an exclusive club, with the roar of engines and screech of tires echoing across the runway.

In the end, the Motown Mile proved to be an unforgettable experience that showcased some of the world's most incredible performance cars in a unique and exhilarating setting. Whether you're a car enthusiast or simply looking for a thrilling adventure, this is definitely an event worth checking out. Just remember to sign those waivers - it's not meant to be fun, but it certainly feels like it!
