Boyfriend still buzzing after today's racing experience. Well organised and even very wet conditions couldn't spoil the fun. Staff were amazing with daughter as it's quite a long time to stand in wet conditions and she was so occupied watching and being involved (not in the driving obviously) that she never complained once. Only advice is to wrap up warm and with waterproofs if rainy as spray off cars passing leaves you pretty wet.

Absolutely awesome experience today. Have been in love with Aston Martins when I was 10 years old( over 50 years ago!!). To have the privilege of driving this beautiful beast round the circuit was awesome. Thank you especially to Craig , my instuctor..he was brilliant. And thank you for your comments Craig. Hope I did well. Will be back. Maybe have the confidence to increase the speed next time!!!

I was lucky enough to be given a Ferrari driving experience voucher and what a fun experience it turned out to be. There is a cafe/restaurant to have a bite to eat before the event and I was in a small group of 3. First a safety briefing and helmets fit. I found having glasses it was difficult to get them back on with a good fitting full face helmet and there is a tendency for then to mist up a bit with the helmet on, I did wonder if an open face helmet might be an option for glasses wearers. Friendly relaxed instructors put you at your ease. Next we went out to the track for a series of laps in a Racing Honda Civic with a lot of instruction on lines and driving technique to prepare you for the Ferrari. It's also fun watching the other drivers from the pit wall. Then on to the Ferrari 430 a stunning drive with huge amounts of power again a great patient instructor making it a fantastic experience. This is a FUN FUN FUN experience if you’re reading this and not sure the only thing I can say is just do it you won't regret it.
