Question

Oh no.

It's not what you think!!!

She is a really good driver and when we test drove the WRX she had the dealer hanging on and he had the buckets up front!!!

It is her Birthday and she loves the car as much as I do. I want to buy her a chance to take out our pride and joy on a track under the expert supervision of someone who knows what they are doing i.e. a professional. and drive it as it is meant to be driven.

I am based in the South. Any ideas guys (and gals)?

If you want to run your own car and get some serious instruction (rather than a "lotus day at donnington" or a "C5 day at Brands", etc) try don palmer @ driving development and see what he can offer -

gaz1048,

I want to arrange something like that for my wife as well

I would seriously consider the Jonathon Palmer driving school experience for her. It is worth every single penny!!

Details can be found at:-

Have you tried Goodwood? They do special driver training days with an instructor. We have done many trackdays at Goodwood and it's a really nice easy track - easy on the driver and on the car Can't remember the name of the group who do the driving days but if you are local, why not pop in there?

If you fancy public road and then track training, speak to Mike@PD - he has a banner and he is THE man for this kinda' stuff.
