For all of you guys who have been to vags and done one of those driving experiences. Which one do you recommend. Some are on a track and others are on canyon roads.

None of them. Most of the cars are beat to shit. But, if you have to do one, I'd do this:

I did a GTR out at the track. I wanted to see how the AWD was. Besides a little mid corner understeer it was pretty good. The instructor has a brake pedal and wasn’t very confident in my driving and hit the brakes a couple times which was a weir sensation. The laps were over before I knew it though. I was wanting more laps for sure. I saw a lot of people go back in for a second go, I wasn’t going to pay again though. Maybe if your not trying to push a car hard then the canyon rides may be better.

You could not pay me enough to sit shotgun with a bunch of random people in Supercars on track lol. Id rather be a night club clean up crew
for around $1000, you cant rent one for 24 hours and free to go just about anywhere you want.
This. Don't pay someone to drive a "supercar", it's just not worth it. If you're dead set on that rent something off Turo.
Years ago I rented a viper for 24 hours, it was $300/day + $1 per mile.
I put about 150 miles in it, after tax and other BS I gave the guy $500 and literally got back like $2 in change.
It was money well spent, I had won it the day before on a slot machine. Took the car all over Vegas, back roads, out to the Hoover dam, etc. it was fun.

We did Vegas exotic racing, they merged with Vegas off rode experience. I drove a Lamborghini and a skyline, both were a blast but wish I did the skyline first. Well worth it for the abuse and the tire/brake wear I put. I already do short course off road racing so I didn’t want to pay to do that, but that is the most fun you can have with your clothes on!

Only suckers rent supercars to drive on the street. I know you asked about track, but just putting that out there. We rented Slingshots and took them out to Red Rock (in Tuxedos LOL). I could not believe the rental rates for supercars. Anyway, I have this on my radar for a future visit:Police Chase Las Vegas

I did this one and felt the $500 I spent gave instruction on simulators after a quick classroom. Then 5 laps in a Cayman GTS and 6 in a Ferrari 488GTB.
They push you to drive the cars hard on track.
I was very impressed.

I did the Exotic Racing that's based out at the speedway. I had a blast as did my buddy. We did the 12 laps. I drove an R8 and he drove the new NSX. Our instructors didn't have a brake pedal or anything.
In 05 they offered the experience,
When all said n done, its when you enter thru the side window, put helmet on, instructor taps me,
I start up, NOISE!!! Empty cabin except oil gauge, temp, fire extinguisher...
Took 2 laps + to reach high speed, very low rear gear
On lap 4 I felt more at ease n started to remember my instructions..........
Never brake unless pitting
Only lift Big Toe to slow down
Keep it to to the floor. So I did
Always turning left was wearing on forearm, steady car noise is exhausting.......keeping the Line was being very focused for too long ........having the full gear on,
Just imagine having other cars beside you. WOW
Smiles...Smiles.......
