You've built this track day up to be something it's absolutely not mind. Unless you're easy pleased.

This.

I did one at Teesside and it was shite.

Ferrari Spider with paddle change. Car was old and flat. Professional driver who was in with me was disinterested and from his briefing I thought I was doing familiarising laps, the after 3 he said right thats it in we go.

Got in with a professional driver driving, in a Lotus Elise, he was mad. That made it worth the money.

I genuinely don't see the appeal. 3 laps for like £100?

The gp track here has open days so you can go round in your own car - I've played golf at the course in the middle of the track and seen lads in people carriers thinking they're lewis Hamilton with their missus reading a magazine in the passenger seat :)

I think we had the same car/driver with the ferrari. That's exactly what happened with me. It was a gift but i still felt ripped off. Waste of time and petrol driving down.

I do so only because you've knocked this track day down to be something it's absolutely not. Unless you have no sense of appreciation for things that may not mean much to you but are big to others. Look, there may be a half million pound supercar's in every driveway in the street where you live but to me they are something special. I suspect I am not alone either. You don't get to even look at one much less sit in one or drive one most days. When you have never experienced one you can be forgiven for being a little exited, don't you think? We have grown up to believe that supercars like your Lambo's and Ferrari's are the best of cars. So again one should be forgiven for being a little excited.

This video on YouTube says different to you...

That days looks a lot of fun. I cannot wait. I am sure it will be a great day for me. And I am not sorry for you that it won't be for you.

So? It isn't about the instructor you moron. Nor is it about how old the car is. It is about the fact you will go away being able to say you have driven a Mclaren 570S, a Ferrari 348 Spyder and a Porsche Cayman.

I get 3 laps in both the Ferrari and the McLaren so when he says "in we go" after 3 laps I ought to expect that you dullard.

I cannot believe I am having to actually defend myself and what is my own birthday present from my parents. I cannot believe I am having to actually defend what to many should be a happy and fun time and a great experience. Typical of the SMB to knock everyone's dreams down. I ought not to expect anything more from it and I am daft for expecting anything more.

I see an ideal business opportunity for a hooker to set up at Croft taking virginities, they come off all excited after their 3 laps for £100 and immediately get 3 pumps for £100 with a choice of the 19 year old, the milf or the classic gilf ( with a free tube of KY )

Shut the fuck up. I at least will say I went to my favourite place in the world and drove not one, not even two but three supercars and IN ONE DAY. Till you can say that I advise you to pipe down.

I recommend the Romanian special, nought to raging stiffy in 0 seconds
 
I have visions in my head of SBC driving fairly slowly around croft in a super car trying his best to conceal a hard on in his jogging pants.

I think I may need some counselling.
 
O.K the lad is, quite clearly, not the "full shilling" but why some posters wish to destroy his memories, or his experience' I will never understand.

I hope that those who have attempted to do either are proud of themselves!!
