Have you had many problems with your CS or they can take the tough driving?

Only available at our venue's. Hopefully we should also be adding Knockhill to our list of northern venues. Just negotiating rates!!

Only problems to watch out for is the carbon brakes! Well I say carbon brakes but more the pads. If you dont change the pads frequently you may damage the discs and at £2K each they are very expensive. Pads are approx £500 a set. If the discs are looked after then they will last the life of the car.

hmmm comparing a G and a 360CS side by side could be tempting.

Whats you closest track to London?

Depends on a lot of factors as to speeds, revs etc. I know of a lot of these driving experience companies which have certain 'rules' like the 4k limit etc however we judge on drivers ability, weather conditions, number of participants/cars on the circuit etc. We set out the circuit which does allow for higher speeds/revs but its solely at our discretion. All we do state is that its not a race, its a driving experience.
