Mercedes AMG GT R

Big, bold, and loud - that’s the Mercedes AMG GT R. This car is unapologetically aggressive, and when you fire it up, the engine growl turns heads before you even hit the track. But don’t let the “Beast” nickname fool you - it’s actually super rewarding to drive.

Out on the Exotics Racing track, it’s surprisingly refined. It grips, it corners, it responds. And the power? Yeah, there’s plenty of it. But it doesn’t feel out of control - it just feels like it wants to run, fast. You’ll get comfortable behind the wheel quickly, especially with a coach riding along helping you push lap after lap.

You came to Vegas for excitement, right? Driving this car at speed beats slot machines and pool parties every time. If you’re looking for something unforgettable to do in Las Vegas, this one’s got horsepower, attitude, and a soundtrack that’ll stick with you long after you leave.

Tristan Vautier
Tips From A Pro

“The GT R rewards a balanced approach. Brake hard and steady into corners, then gradually apply throttle to unleash its monstrous power on the exit. Take advantage of the rear-wheel steering for precise turn-ins and let the active aerodynamics keep you planted during high-speed maneuvers.”

Mercedes AMG GT R FAQ
The Mercedes-AMG GT R is powered by a handcrafted 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine producing 577 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

It accelerates from 0–60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of around 198 mph.
The AMG GT R is famously known as the “Beast of the Green Hell,” a nickname earned from its extensive development at the Nürburgring.

It’s a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive supercar that feels raw, powerful, and beautifully engineered. With its aggressive design, wide stance, and thunderous V8 soundtrack, it delivers an unmistakable sense of purpose.
The front-engine layout gives the GT R a very different character compared to mid-engine cars.

The weight distribution makes the front end feel planted and predictable, while active rear-wheel steering helps the car rotate sharply through corners.

The result is a balanced, confidence-inspiring car that feels incredibly stable at high speeds.
The twin-turbo V8 produces one of the most distinctive and emotional sounds in the supercar world.

It roars on acceleration, crackles on downshifts, and fills the cabin with deep, thunderous energy, creating a strong connection between driver and machine.
The AMG GT R is built for precision.

Active aerodynamics, adaptive suspension, and advanced traction systems work together to keep the car glued to the track.

It feels solid and composed through every turn, offering a perfect blend of raw power, balance, and confidence-inspiring feedback that makes each lap thrilling yet controlled.

Worth every penny 10/10 did 7 laps in the Ferrari 488 gtb with instructor Sam. Best lap 57.426 and 7 laps in Mercedes AMG GT R with Justin P. Best lap 54.736. Sam and Justin were the best coaches. This was my second time in the AMG and I can’t wait to go back. These coaches will help you extract every bit of lap time and debrief at the end so you can go faster next time. Listen to them and you’ll go fast!

I had a fantastic experience at Speed Vegas, the staff are friendly, respectful, and professional, and they genuinely want you to enjoy your time both on and off the track. The driving coaches are also excellent, I had the pleasure of driving with Leo in the Mustang GT500 and Justin in the AMG GTR and 911 GT3 RS (991 gen). They were both incredible people and instructors and I learned a ton about good track driving techniques and the cars' specific handling characteristics from both of them. My wife and I also did the drift experience and had a great time, I definitely suggest doing it. The entire experience exceeded my expectations and created memories I'll keep forever, definitely a must-do if you're in the area!

Perfect client event at Speed Vegas We recently brought a group of clients to Speed Vegas and it was a big success. The crew is organized and does their best to ensure a great experience for everyone! While the track was a little crowded, that's going to happen when you go out with a group . I had two wonderful coaches that really helped guide me and keep me safe. I drive the Mercedes AMG with Leonard! He was a great communicator and took time before we started to understand my goals on the track that day! I also was fortunate enough to drive the Ferrari with Kareem! I will be back to work with both these gentleman bc they took great care of me and our group! Thanks guys

I came here to celebrate my 18th birthday, and man was it incredible. I drove the Mercedes AMG GTR and the 992 Porsche 911 GT3 RS. The Mercedes was an absolute blast to drive, but the GT3 RS blew me away. The grip, sound, and overall experience was beyond anything I could have imagined. My coach for both cars was Bk. He did an amazing job teaching me how to drive the cars. He helped me learn how to corner faster and hit the straights in order to get faster and faster lap times. Bk helped me push myself and the cars to the limits(safely), ensuring I had the best experience possible. If you will be driving a higher performance car, I found it very beneficial to drive a lower end car first to warm up to the track. I very highly recommend Speed Vegas to anyone considering coming here. Well worth the money.

This is a must do if you drive a car. The chance to drive a top of the line sports car as fast as you dare to go is addicting. The before driving training helps with confidence, but when you start the motor and feel that rumble the adrenaline starts to pump and away you go! I drove the Mercedes AMG SLM (198 to speed) and my partner drove the Astin Martin (195 to speed). The ride along instructor told me the line to drive and kept encouraging mere to go faster. What a rush! I was not ready for it to be over. Definitely doing this again. Top recommendation for this great business.

First time on a race track I was in town for a work conference, and was looking for something to do before my flight home. I remembered driving past this during a camping trip years ago, and thought it could be fun, so I reserved a Nissan GT-R online. Everyone was incredibly friendly, and made me feel welcome even though I had never been on a track, or driven a car this powerful. I was eventually paired with Warren, who spent time explaining the nuances of the GT-R before we hit the road. After a few laps to get comfortable with the car, and familiar with the track, Warren coached me through improved lap after lap. I overtook a few other cars, and even ended up in the top three of my group! Afterwards, he spent some time explaining why the GT-R felt as it did, and why it was so special. Even though they told me they were going to retire the GT-R soon, I can't recommend this place enough. Besides the other cool cars to choose from, they've got a great staff, and offer one of the best experiences in Las Vegas.

Fun, fast awesomeness!!! You went to speed Vegas Vegas Supercars for my son's 21st birthday. He got to drive both a ZO6 Corvette and a Ferrari. I drove the Mercedes AMG. The staff and instructors were great knowledgeable and just a lot of fun to be with. Well worth the money now I think I might have an addiction to speed. Make sure you tip your instructor, they are the best!

100/10 would recommend to anyone. It's a BLAST! I pre-rented the nissan gtr to drive, however it was in for maintenance so I got a choice between an upgraded car or same price point with an extra lap. Decided on the extra lap and the Mercedes AMG GTR. AWESOME car with great power and handling, I got Nino as my instructor. He was highly knowledgeable and got me from 1:15 on my 1st lap down to 0:58 on my 12th. Highly knowledgeable and professional! I'd HIGHLY recommend this as a must do to anyone who comes here. The entire staff was great, clean facility, clean and well-maintained cars, very safe. Loved every second of my time here and it was money well spent!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! The five lap warm up in the AMG was perfect. The instructor (*** ) explained the car and how it would handle perfectly. It started to get real when they strapped on the HANS device. As I climbed into the McLaren GT4, my excitement was growing. Again, the instructor (*** ) was very thorough in what to expect from the car on the track. The McLaren did not disappoint. I had 15 laps of sheer thrill! I cannot wait to get back to Vegas Supercars for my next experience. Thank you!

I had an amazing experience at Speed Vegas! From the front desk associates, to the photographer and the instructors, the staff was extremely helpful and friendly! They were very knowledgeable and supportive and truly strived to assure I had a fantastic time. The race track was also very clean and so much fun to speed through.

I recently attended an exotic car race day event where I had the opportunity to drive multiple high-performance cars, including sessions in the GT3 RS and AMG GTR with instructors Nino and Eric. Before hitting the track, I made it clear to both instructors that I welcomed critical feedback—I wanted to improve quickly and learn as much as possible. Both Nino and Eric delivered exactly that, providing constructive insights that helped me develop as a driver in a short amount of time. Their professionalism and direct coaching style made the experience not only enjoyable but also incredibly valuable. I left feeling motivated to come back and spend even more time in different vehicles to better understand what suits me best. For me, this wasn’t just about the thrill of the drive—it was a practical way to “try before you buy.” Getting real seat time on track with a car is far more cost-effective than purchasing one outright and later realizing it doesn’t match your expectations. This kind of experience is an essential step in the buying process for anyone seriously considering an exotic car. One thing I think deserves more recognition is the instructors themselves. These professionals get in the passenger seat with drivers of varying skill levels, putting their trust—and lives—in the hands of others. That takes serious courage and commitment, and I think it’s something that should be commended more often.

This was a return trip for me but the first for my management team. Every person on the way home couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had and how well they were treated. They all said “we were expecting it to be great but it far exceeded our expectations and can’t wait to come back” Very very professional. The instructors make you feel very safe and comfortable in a new and high speed environment. And a great price when you consider the cost of operating an enterprise of this type. Will definitely return many times - my personal instructors were *** and *** and both of them allowed me to push my limits in the car while keeping me safe

First, the car I chose, The *** was amazing. It was everything I hoped it would be. My coach, ***, was phenomenal. He was professional and a lot of fun to work with. The entire crew there was also very professional but made it a fun environment. Im a local, so I will definitely be back to test out other cars in your stable. 10/10 AMAZING!!
