Guys, if you need a fix til next vmax...

Today I went to Chobham and experienced the "6th Gear" driving experience.

It's been a few years since I did the supercar days at snetterton with the 355, Esprit Turbo, 993 & viper so I was on heat to see what the day was all about.

And boy what an experience it is!

Now, VMAX is pretty humbling as far as exotica goes but my god this was impressive.

As we pulled up we saw a line up that was like an EVO photoshoot..

Off the top of my head.

Aston DBS
Aston DB9
Aston Vantage
Lamborghini LP650
Lamborghini Murcielago
Lamborghini Gallardo
Lamborghini Gallardo spider
Ferrari 599
Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale
Ferrari 360 spider
Audi R8
2x Arial Atom (sic?)
BMW M3 CSL
Subaru Impreza

Does it get any better?

The day was slick, professional, the marshalls and instructors pushed you fully to you limits but all in the realms of safety and the course was incredible.

I can't enthuse enough about how fantastic it was. If you're looking for a fun day out then it lives up to the max!

I'll be going again!

hi guys,

jez, cost varies depending on which cars/experience you do, if you google 6th gear experience its all on there. Drop me a line if ever interested in booking and i'll talk to the guys there, they may do some sort of package for you wink I think next ones down south are early next year but they are running more in warwickshire & the north this year.

Guy, I absolutely loved the F599, just so much power, my brother totally fell in love with the R8 !

Just got home from one of these 6th Gear days.

Absolutly AWESOME.

I did the "Best of the best" package, Ferrari 599, Aston DBS, Lambo LP640.

Excellent organisation, great instructors who REALLY let you push the cars.

Favourite car:- DBS, the noise, the torque, cloud9 And surprisingly good on track
