Nice, I take it there isnt an age limit as long as you have a license?

They're good days out!

I had one in a Scooby and an Evo a few months ago and they do let you rag them around.

I was in the car and I was driving like a OAP, only taking it to like 4k revs on my first lap and the guy stopped me and goes "take it to 8k this time, rag the fucking shit out of it!".

Iv never driven anything like that before, it scared the shit out of me! Im going to do the Lambo + R8 + Ferrari package soon!

They dont let you rag the super cars (Rari's, lambo's, porsche's, aston's etc) but if you have like a Cooper S / Evo / Impreza experience they let you gun it a bit

edit - at least they wouldnt let me rag the 911 Turbo I had, got it up to 145mph on the straight though, it was an automatic, didnt even realise how fast I was going

There's not much the guy in the passenger seat can do to stop you though is there?

You'd give it the beans until the guy said something anyway

I bounced off the limiter when I drove a 355 round Silverstone. The dude told me to change gear but I kept my foot planted

The engine went, 'baam baam baam', the bloke then said, 'And thats why I said change gear'

i had a gift voucher, and i had one demo lap in BMW dunno which, guess M5, then 4 laps in lambo SPYDER, fastests i SEEN on speedo was 100MPH and i bloody loved everyminute of it!!!

then a quick lap in BMW M3 CLS, few corners less and 120mph on straight!!!. guy told us(3 passengers in car) its a bit mad isnt it? a had a huge smile on his face!

all in worth every penny imo!

also was aloud to rev it up to red line, no comments about that at all!

My day was class Rain kept off till just after i'd finished which was great

1 passenger lap in BMW to show lines and where to brake/accelerate etc
4 laps me driving LP640
1 passenger lap in BMW M3 CSL to show you how it should be driven....that guy can drive!!

Only used 3rd and 4th round the track as straights weren't long enough to go 140+ so 5th wasn't needed and even when coming out of a corner in 3rd at low revs you put your foot down and it's off!

Car is an absolute beast loved every minute of it....sounded awesome too
