Hi all,
A friend of mine is looking to get his son a red letter day experience for his 18th.

I said, pah, you don't actually get a whole lot of driving time on them, I know a Website where I'll be able to find a much better value day out...

so there you go, in the kent area would be best, any suggestions from the PH Massive? Looked at the PH car control days, but they were over budget.

Thanks in Advance,
CH

PS: the 18 year old does drive already, and isn't a total boy racer; max budget is £200

Cheers both, using his own car isn't really a good idea... he's on his second car since passing less than a year ago with a very valuable (and expensive!) lesson in mechanical sympathy

I've looked on a couple of the circuit sites and they want you to have held your licence for a year - I expect this is also in the red letter days T&C... Got me thinking and I might suggest a Karting day as an alternative, much fun as getting a shot in a supercar is, getting to race against your dad could even more satisfying!

Cheers, CH
