For events that I've seen recently it seemed to depend on the organiser & the level of charge for the main driver, the higher the main driver charge, the lower the second driver charge & vice versa......
For a sessioned event, 2 drivers sharing a car in same session, charge varied from no charge/or an admin fee of £10 for the second driver (against a main driver booking fee of £210/£180), through to other events charging £30 - £40 against a main driver fee of £99).
Alternatively, if you wanted separate sessions each (ie the car goes out with a different driver in more than session) then each driver was paying full whack.
Open pit lane, have varied from £30 per extra driver all the way through to full price each driver.

I'd be very careful doing this.
Make sure you have a bloody well prepped track car.
One of my mates wanted to share my 75 on an airfield day - I was tempted, 'cos the likelyhood of having an accident on an airfield is very slim, but what made my mind up against it in the end was that my car needs time to cool down between sessions.
It's mainly brakes that'll be the issue, unless you've uprated them to cope with being hammered all day long - I need to give myself 15-30 mins. between sessions on the track to allow stuff to cool down enough to get 4 or 5 laps in before fade.
As you can see, this can really cut short your track time if you're sharing a car.
