Hi all. Looking for some guidance on rally-driving experience days for a present that I'm buying for a friend's birthday. Would be looking to do a whole day, and probably don't want to go too far North of Birmingham for it.

Any experiences would be welcomed! Ta!

Silverstones' race prepped (no interior, crash gearbox, hydraulic handbrake) fiesta ST's are a hoot, and not too far down the road from you (M40/A43).

One of the best value days I've ever done... and I've done loads!

If you're worried about them being fwd, don't be. The instructors teach you to corner by initiating a slide using the steering and handbrake, then holding the steering straight with your foot flat on the gas for thrust through the corner, using the handbrake to control the amount of sliding. It's hilarious!
