Kids are away this week. Got a days holiday for this Thursday. Want to do some sort of motorsport thing (track, stage, hillclimb, trials etc) with the (MYxx) wife - she's the one with the Scoob!

Could use the Scoob if non-damaging, or have access to a 328i, or would use any car supplied.

Any ideas at this late stage?? South of Birmingham preferred.

TIA

Answered my own question now, thanks (winking smiley)

Quick summary for everyone...on the whole very good.

3 laps in Golf GTi driven by instructor demonstrating brake, change and turn points (all signposted at edge of track)

3 laps driving the instructor around in the Golf - being assessed for car control, braking, turning etc (*)

3 laps driving (instructor as passenger) in a (manual) 328GTB - pretty damn quick. Gearchange appalling - worst I've ever experienced. No spring loading and you have to look down to see which part of the gate to move the lever into.

3 laps driving (instructor as passenger) in a 355F1 (F1 style up/down paddles, no clutch) - very very quick. Spot on handling. They didn't mind it being booted out of corners, as long as it wasn't to soon. Change up at 7500+ rpm'ish. Saw about 110mph on the short straight. Pretty noisy. Overtook someone else on their 328GTB laps - felt real cool to do that.

3 laps as passenger in an Elise - instructor was good fun and one of the last of the late brakers, steering on throttle etc

(Optional £40 extra - and didn't do it) 3 laps in Maserati 3200GT. Spins wheels on every gear change up to 100mph in the dry! Tyres last them 6 days!

Some other things to while away the time -Land Rover which turns left when you steer right and drive a fire engine. Plus a piccie and a packed lunch. Good arrangements, people to talk to etc

Value for money at normal price of £199 per person - OK, especially if you've only driven 0-60 in 10 secs type cars before. Value for money at £99 per person ('cos we booked 2 days in advance) - definitely, even if you've driven fast(ish) cars before.
