Morning All,

I've been treated to a driving day and it's with 6th gear experience.

The centres that I would travel to are;

Elvington
Blyton Park
Prodrive
Bruntingthorpe

Now while i've heard of them all, i've never been to any of them and would like to make the right choice.

Any advice gratefully received.

Cheers

I went to Longcross a last week - which was very good. Instructor in the lambo was excellent - really had me pushing on.

Not too familiar with the others, being a southerner lol, but i've been to bruntingthorpe a couple of times and its kinda boring tbh. Great if you want to go fast in a straight line, but no real corners. Heard prodrive is good.

Elvington - both you and the instructor wont need to worry about you hitting anything

Just please please do make sure they let you rev the cars all the way out. Ie, if your driving the F458, tell them you want to hit 8500rpm-9000rpm at WOT a few times.

I think there are noise issues at Elvington. Might be a good reason to try a different venue like Brunters where lots of noise seems to be the order of the day biggrin

Enjoy!

Dave
