What Speed Vegas does
Speed Vegas Motorsports Park operates a purpose-built motorsports entertainment complex at 14200 S Las Vegas Boulevard, approximately 15 minutes south of the Las Vegas Strip. The facility comprises a 1.3-mile paved racetrack with 10 turns, a 2,000-foot straightaway, and F1-grade TecPro safety barriers; a 1-mile off-road dirt track with tabletop jumps reaching up to 6 feet and 15-degree banking; an outdoor gas-powered go-kart track with live timing leaderboards; and what the company describes as the only in-ground LED track lighting system in the United States, enabling nighttime driving. Its fleet includes 75+ high-performance supercars (Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, McLaren, Aston Martin, Audi, Corvette, Mercedes AMG, Ford, Acura), 50 go-karts, and 10 Baja race trucks.
The business monetizes paid time on these assets through a tiered pricing model: supercar driving experiences start at $299 for 5 laps on entry-level vehicles and escalate to $599 for 5 laps on top-tier vehicles such as the Ferrari 296 Challenge, with multi-lap packages offering 15-30% discounts. Add-on revenue streams include ride-along experiences ($99 for 2 laps in a Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat drift car, $149 for 3 laps as a supercar passenger), private night events for corporate groups, gift certificates, on-board HD video and photography, branded merchandise, and the Time Trial World Challenge competitive format with live and online leaderboards. Go-to-market is primarily direct-to-consumer via the website (speedvegas.com), phone reservations (702-213-9068), and walk-in traffic, with a dedicated corporate events team (702-802-5667) handling B2B bookings. Customer segments span Las Vegas tourists (primary), corporate groups, local residents and repeat visitors, and motorsport enthusiasts.
The legal entity, Las Vegas Motorsports Park, LLC, was formed from the 2021 merger of Exotics Racing (founded 2009 by Romain Thievin and David Perisset) and the pre-merger Speed Vegas entity (founded 2015), incorporating Vegas Superkarts (2019) and Vegas Off-Road Experience (VORE) under a single brand. The company is privately held by owners David Perisset, Sam Schmidt (former IndyCar driver), and Mike Self (VORE founder), with CEO Romain Thievin, COO Evens Stievenart, VP of Track Operations Frédéric Johais, and CFO Marcela Taboada. No institutional venture capital or private equity is disclosed. Since 2009, the company states it has served over 700,000 customers; revenue figures are not publicly disclosed.
