Help - Tack day advice

[Martini12]

Hi All, I'm very new to this but I am looking for some advice please. I would like to buy my husband a track day / driving experience for a very special birthday and wondered which supercar would be best. I can imagine he would love to drive McLaren, but problem is the only ones i can find have height restrictions. He is 6 ft 6" and the McLarens seem to have a limit of max height at 6ft 2!!! Any others you guys can recommend please. Happy to spend up to £150 ish. I think i have seen some at about £125, but just wondered what the best ones are to go for and if they are super strict on the height. As i saw one (cant remember which cars) and the max height was 6ft 5... do i risk it? Thanks so much for your help.

You'd be gutted if he didnt fit in the car.

Best thing to do is give them a call and check. I'm 6'5 and can fit in a modern McLaren but never done a track experience day in one. Porsche 911s will have the most room and the Audi r8 is not too bad.

is it just a supercar experience you're after for your SO? because if you want some more track time for him, then Brands Hatch do a BMW M4 experience, the uper tier package of which gives the person a bit more track time than the cheaper package, plus time with the instructor discussing driving the track etc.

Something to think about

Book him a roadster then he has miles of headroom

Another good thing about this is that he should be pretty comfortable driving an M4 too

Yeah, but a track day experience might involve wearing a crash helmet as well - I'm under 6ft (*just) and some cars I can't fit in with a lid on.

Other solution - look for an experience in an open-top car.....
