2009 Wind & Fire Tour Dates

Last year, most of the Wind & Fire tour slots sold out, so – by popular demand – we’ve added even more driving days for 2009. During this five hour event, you’ll switch and compare performance and handling between five incredible supercars – including the Ferrari F430, Ford GT, Audi R8, Aston Martin DB9, Lamborghini Gallardo, and the Bentley Flying Spur – discovering for yourself what makes them so special.

And – new for 2009 – a total of 25 driving sessions are available out of our New Jersey and New York club locations. All tours offer seat time in a selection of five supercars on some of the most thrilling road driving imaginable.

Your day starts at one of our two private clubhouses in Chester, New Jersey and Glen Cove, New York, where you’ll receive an overview of each vehicle from our staff, and a review of the tour route. Then, you’ll pilot each vehicle through some of the most scenic and demanding roads in the region, rotating cars at designated checkpoints. At the end of the tour, you’ll receive commemorative photos of your trip, as well as a chance to review your experience with fellow enthusiasts.

As for the route? It won’t disappoint. You’ll be traveling through some of the most breathtaking regions in New York and New Jersey, on a fantastic mix of river-hugging back-country roads, small towns, and some high(er) speed, wide-open interstate driving.

Reserve your seat now; when they’re gone, they’re gone!

“The Finer Things in Life” @ Trump National Bedminster

What’s the difference between a Ferrari and a Volvo? What’s the difference between a Rochefoucauld and a Timex? What’s the difference between a Monet and a paint-by-numbers? For some people, a car is just a car; a watch is just a watch; and a painting – irrespective of the artist – is just another canvas upon which seemingly dull acrylics have been poorly splashed. But for others, the difference between cars yields vast meaning. Performance, style, heritage – and emotion. For some people, a Timex just doesn’t yield the quality and panache worthy of gracing their wrist. And sometimes, though I give her credit, Georgia O’Keefe just can’t replace Dali’s Persistence of Time hanging in the foyer. Those who just can’t bring themselves to compromise on these things – often revered as necessities – have a deep appreciation for the finer things in life.

The owners and staff at Vulcan Motor Club are all too familiar with the finer things – and the lifestyles they accompany. That’s why they celebrated these things – these epicurean amenities – in an evening dedicated to those who indulge in life’s lavish pleasures. Occupying the luxurious Trump National Golf Club, Vulcan invited a select 250 bon vivants to revel in the splendor of those things that aren’t so easily attained. The cars for instance…

The Ferrari California: Coming Soon to Vulcan

We’re pleased to announce that the forthcoming addition of the Ferrari California to the Vulcan Motor Club fleet in early 2009.

The Ferrari California is a modern interpretation of a treasured classic, the Ferrari 250 GT California. The 2009 Ferrari California channels the appeal of the original, and caps it off with the convenience of retractable hard top. The official unveiling will happen at the Paris Auto Show in September.

The California carries with it three notable items. Notable item one is a retractable convertible hard top. If you’ve ever seen a Ferrari 360 Modena Spider with its cloth top up, it just doesn’t feel right. With the California, it looks just as good with the top up or down. Notable item two is roominess, for example, its ability to transport multiple snowboards…and that’s according to Ferrari. Notable item three is Ferrari’s placement of the engine in front of the vehicle, which is significant because it enables notable items one and two.
