Did one in November..... great fun

Bacon butties on arrival, high speed track, skid pans, lunch, rally stage, 4 x 4 then home....

Learn't a bit, but more fun than learning TBH

Superb for the price! although it can be boring for your guest!

Do you get to drive a rally car or do they just drive you round in one?

On the tarmac rally stage they use a new standard STi, WRX and a wagon.... you get to play on the same section in all three cars......

At the end the instructor takes you round in the STi, it's at that point you realise you can't drive them anywhere near their limit
