The cars they're offering are ancient! I don't think i'd bother with them for that reason alone tbh, i got my brother a go in a DB9 from drivers dream days, similar price to that but much more choice.  :smug:

stilll would be a fun day out, even in something thats not a "supercar" you can have a bit of fun on a track, nothing better than ragging the tits of a motor that you dont own around a track. :grin:

Alot of those driving day things are on places like the pod. They use cones to make up a track.

Still wouldn't feel that good being coned off, I'd rather have it on a proper track tbh

Errr track drag maybe?
Not enough space in santa pod! Those cones would be destroyed on the first run then a 3. point turn needed to come back  :grin:

Very few do, hard on the cars brakes and tyres over a whole track, so they make short ones with long bends and straights = less brake usage, gear changes and tyre wear.

Been to the pod and can't see it being that good coned off as a track  :undecided: wouldn't mind doing a load of 1/4 mile runs in a supercar, but wouldn't only want to do that.
