Yeah i not been yet, But have looked on the website which is Rally Driving Experiences, Supercar Driving Experiences, Activity Gift Days & Gift Experience Vouchers - Home Page It's gonna be in Stafford and looks an awesome day out, The morning is spent driving the supercars and the afternoon we move on to the rallying.I don't really care whether i drive the lambo only 1/2 a mile It will be caned She also got me a PSP to play with for now she's tops my Mrs.

 

Blimey what a good girlfriend you have, whats her number.

Happy birthday.

 

I got a similar thing for my 40th in April mate, but mine was the "Single Seater Experience" at Mallory Park.

I'm looking forward to it, but rather secretly wish I'd got the supercar day instead!

 

Ok i booked to go on wednesday, Do i wear my Subaru Replica jacket and Puma blue kart boots? Or am i going to look like a geek Replys most welcome! I've got the camera charged and can't wait, gonna cane that Lambo!

 

Happy birthday fella Who gives a crap what ya look like mate, wear ya birthday suit Just enjoy Big up ya Mrs

 

i had one of those for my b/day last year at the same place ...

if you got sat nav then when it says your arriving on the right it really means turn left and down the track ...lol

i would go in normal clothes , great day out the hand break turning is good but not long enough ...

keep your eye out for the chavs pulling in the car park in there corsa's

in whole a great day out , take some warm clothes as its open to the elements of the british weather ..

evos are very fast , but am a scooby man myself

enjoy
phil

 

sounds great a mate of mine did somthing similar and had a ball absoloutley loved it. sorry but i always think guys who wear (all the kit and still sh@t) look a bit daft! id just go with the boots and leave the jacket at home boots with jeans looks ok..oh spank em all, including the girlfriend she deserves it

 

Ive been to drive me in Stafford too

The Scoob & Evo driving is on the track circuit not on a rally stage, only the Polo is full rally spec, get those handbrake turns done

It was an Astra when I went as the VW was poorly, but still just as much fun

I would wear normal clothes, but have a quiet word with the instructors, tell them you drive performance cars

I think when I went the 355 wasnt available due to yet another burnt out clutch but they did have the 360

They will take a lot of photos too which you can purchase afterwards and they are pretty reasonable too and you can also purchase extra laps if you like too

 

Brace yourself for some heavy news

 

Is it me or is she buttering you up for some bad news? or am i as paranoid as i think!

 

did she pay from joint account

 

Firstly we don't have a joint account so she has paid! If there was some bad news i would know by now as she paid for this 10 months ago........... So onto the nitty gritty I'm driving the scoob there anyway so they can see what i drive day to day, I'll have a word with the instructors and let them know I drive a Scoob and then watch me fly PS I'm wearing my Puma boots the reason? So i can dance over them pedals! Piccys will follow.

 

What an awesome day, A quick rundown on the drives.
Ferrari 360
Lambo Gallardo
Off Road in a Discovery
HOT Lap Lotus Elise 160 as a passenger.

Scooby STi
On the gravel with Peugeot 106 Rallye (Great fun)
Mitsubishi Evo 8
Hot lap in a Focus ST as a passenger (Bloody quick)

The day basically consisted of about 6 laps driving each car around a set course on tarmac, Due to the volume of people that were there you do wait a lot, but you do make friends and talk cars so it's not that boring,

The 360 was quick and smooth, No howl from the exhaust though as i thought it might, The Lambo was awesome a very mechanical sound in the car with a howl ,

The four wheel drive Rally Cars a different story, I have never driven an STi before and ths was a JDM Spec car, Very stiff suspension awesome traction as we know, But was can only be described as brutal, I got my best mark driving this car as my instructor just said you are making this easy for me

The Evo's power was more linear, it was quick for sure but in the corners I'm not sure who was driving me or the computer at one point on the exit i must have booted it too early while having lock on and the power died while the computer waited for me to straighten up!

All in all a wonderful day and I'll be going back to do the Rally experience once again, The best car? The Scoob without a doubt and i heard a lot of people say the same, the super cars were fantastic but very very smooth and not a real sense of power, Where as the Scoob was just mental.

Piccys as promised.
