JamieP Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I fancy booking up some trackdays, what have you done and in what cars and do you recomend it? Did they let you drive the cars flat out and how long did you get in the car? Any links would be great. Cheers:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmaw Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I did a rally driving course at Silverstone, they have a muddy field next to the track. It was fast as you like, the instructor kept telling me to go faster! Then at the briefing at the end when I came 2nd he said I drove like a nutter and he was on the edge of his seat throughout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axle Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 You can take the Lotus for a spin*. It's actually great fun on the track. I get your keys*. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 Lol, Axle bring the lotus on the Llandow club trackday;) I did a rally driving course at Silverstone, they have a muddy field next to the track. It was fast as you like, the instructor kept telling me to go faster! Then at the briefing at the end when I came 2nd he said I drove like a nutter and he was on the edge of his seat throughout Sounds good but only really interested in tarmac days:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erol_h Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 It depends what trackday you go for my brother went on one recently to drive a lambo the guy was with him was keeping a close eye on and if he wasnt comfortable he would tell him to slow down. Also if you spun the car that was it you wasnt allowed to carry on driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Having seen you in action at Llandow I would respectfully suggest you consider buying a reasonably basic race car and having a "proper" go on a track. I am no Ken Tyrell, but nonetheless a reasonable talent scout... Your height will go against most single seaters, but there'll be something to suit. The only downside is I almost guarantee that once you have a go in a proper race car the Supra will be for sale. I suspect you can fund racing, and the talent is there. The hire drive track day packages are not going to sate you. Team up with Wes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 I have thought of buying something like that Chris but id need a trailer aswell and somewhere to store the car, at my current house i dont have space for either but i am trying to sort that, im trying to get a small holding thats at auction tomorrow and that has plenty of space and outbuildings for me to play in.
