Car Experiences

[swiftkid 1]

Right guys, been asked to organise a day out (or more likely half a day) for a car experience of some sort up north, im based near hull and its a works thing so can't really travel halfway across england.

 

seen a couple that look quite good but im wanting to organise a rally day if possible for lots of off road sideways action.

 

So far i've seen:

Northants Bill Gwynee rally day

Elvington - 4 laps in a supercar and 4 in a scooby plus 1 demo run

Oulton Park drifting

Silverstone Rally half day

 

Im wanting to get the most driving time at of this and silverstone seems quite alot for not much. Got £200 to spend and no more as im not paying for it!

 

Anyone got any recommendations?

For how many people? Just you? or £200 each?

£200 each, its a works thing

I did one of the Rally half days. Very good value for money as you say.

 

A lot better than the 4 lap super car days anyway, where you cant even really open the car up.....

I had a rally 'experience' at Silverstone, it was fantastic, who would of thought it possible to fall in love with a fiesta?!

i've done one before in a pug 205 and a merc (skid pan car) that was fantastic and i got plenty of time driving but obviously i don't really want to do the same experience twice. id love to drive a mk2 escort on a rally course but i don't want to be travelling 2 hours for 15min drive and 3 hour talk about safety.

I have done both Bill Gwyne and Silverstone Rally Days and much preferred Bill Gwyne's.

 

It is much more rudementary than the Silverstone one but also more fun in my opinion.

Consider booking this for mid Winter, you will get much more experience and adrelin rush.

There is nothing like crashing through frozen puddles or going for big slides on other icy areas.

 

Not sure you will get these though for £200.

 

Everyman Racing offer an Rally Experience at Prestwold Hall, Leics - it is only an experience and I would not recommend it as no Instruction is provided.

I would recommend their SuperCar Experiences though although these are limited drive time and not Rally stuff.

 

Hope you find something.

I did this one: http://www.thruxtonracing.co.uk/experie ... lotus.html ( but in a Mazda RX8 touring car, they don't do that one anymore)

 

 

Much much better than the supercar one's. For the same price we got full time race driver tuition and did over 21 laps in a car that you could explore the limits of. By the end of the session we we're easily overtaking ferraris and Astons being driven by people trying to make the most out of just a few laps. Plus we were there for hours whereas the supercar guys were there for 30 mins or so.

 

Happy days!
