VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS PLAYERS DRIVE A PORSCHE,
EXPERIENCE VEGAS SUPERKARTS AT EXOTICS RACING
WHAT:
Before they began playing in the Stanley Cup playoffs, Vegas Golden Knights (VGK) Left Wingers William Carrier and Pierre-Édouard Bellemare went full throttle at Exotics Racing in Las Vegas.
During Carrier’s visit to the supercar racing experience, he recorded a 57.79 lap time in the Porsche GT3 RS, known for its high performance and extreme power. Carrier also raced the 4-stroke gas-powered SODIKART SR5 270 CCs on the brand-new Vegas Superkarts track.
Meanwhile, Bellemare joined Carrier to drift in the newly-unleashed police car, exclusively at Exotics Racing. Designed “to protect and swerve,” this Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat reaches speeds up to 204 MPH while pumping out a whopping 707 horsepower and 650 pound-foot of torque with blaring sirens. The VGK players were driven in the police car by Romain Thievin, co-founder, Exotics Racing, who is a professional racing driver with five French national titles and has worked as a stunt performer in more than 150 productions including his star turn in “The Bourne Identity.”
