I did one a few years ago at silverstone, and it was bloody excellent.

handbrake turns, powerslides... it was great fun.

there was a lot to remember and just when I thought I was getting the hang of it, the day was over

just remember...slow in....fast out

Let us know how you get on, I'd love to do it again.

i'll keep you posted,going on the 3rd dec.
still want some more feedback please peeps

[zumbruk]

Find out what kind of cars they use - if they're front wheel drive, better start practising left foot braking now...

[treehack]

using peugot 206's or 309's i think.

[Paul Drawmer]

Silverstone use Pugs. They are proper rally cars with a slight rearward bias on the brakes.

Do NOT use left foot braking, just listen to the instructor's voice in your ear and do as he/she says. Concentrate on being smooth - the cars are nice and responsive. Start slowly and feel what the car is doing, you do get quicker each session, and if you relax, listen, and concentrate - you'll have a great day.

My major tip.

LOOK AHEAD - LOOK AHEAD - LOOK AHEAD

did it today.
I WANT MORE!!
get around half hour driving in 2 sessions,very hard in the first session to get your head round what thier telling you to do as it goes against everything you've ever learnt in a car.second session was a bit easier but still hard to get the hang of it.defo worth the money
