The group of cars is led by a pace car and followed by another staff car to manage the group on the open road.

Harry S., Frenchs Forest, Australia (May 16, 2013)
"Great fun and would love to do it again. As a local I would highly recommend this great event. Everyone from our van driver to the the escort drivers did a great job in keeping you in tune as to what to expect and enjoy the experience.
Trevor did a great job in explaining how each muscle car operates and was very personal. "
Paul C., Henderson, USA (May 13, 2013)
"This past Sunday April 28th I took the American Muscle World Class Driving Tour. When we got to the location the staff greeted us and they were very friendly. We went through the check in process which was quick and easy. Once that was done we met with the drivers/leaders that were going to be going on the tour with us to go over some basic tour information and safety instructions. Once we completed the briefing we were able to go out and pick between a Chevy Corvette, Ford Shelby Mustang & Dodge Challenger. The first car that we picked was the Chevy Corvette of course. We got into the car and followed the lead car with others following behind us we then drove out to the Red Rock Area. We drove to the red rock casino where we switched cars. The next car that we got into was the Dodge Challenger. Once we got into that car we started our way out to Red Rock Canyon. The drive out there and the scenery was beautiful. I couldn't get enough and could not stop taking pictures. We pulled over to a scenic area to take some more photos and then at that point we got into our last but not least vehicle the Ford Shelby Mustang. That car was awesome! Once we got into that car we started making our way back to the World Class Driving garage. The drive back was a good experience too as we were able to test the speed on that vehicle. Once we got back to the World Class Driving location we parked the vehicles and that was the end of the tour. We thanked our tour guides and told them how much of a great experience this was.
I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who comes to visit Las Vegas or even lives in the Las Vegas Area. This is a great tour and would recommend it to anyone!
