hello

Im a final year student and i graduate in less than 5 weeks time. to celebrate my graduation i want to do a rally lesson (rally day) or a super car experience.
1, which one to do, Rally or super car on a track?
2, How Much?
3, Where? (im in the midlands)
4, how lond behind the wheel?

seen some but they are mainly in groups of 10 people that last between 1 to 3 hours and 30 minutes driving time.
Im not willing to pay £250 for 30 mins in a car. does anyone know of one that is longer in the car?

From personal experience, I would recommend a rally day over track, as many of the events you can book have quite severe restrictions on rev limits, time on track etc, whereas the rally events are a lot more flexible in the way they let you drive the cars. Basically, if you enjoy power sliding, handbrake turns and generally getting the car sideways, you'll have more fun in a peugeot 106 than you will in a F355!

Another option is to do a combination day where you do both, but they aren't cheap (£2-300). Great fun though.

Give these people a call.

I had a wicked laugh there with a load of mates a couple of years ago. It was mostly Cossies then, but it's Evo 5's now.

I managed to come 2nd on the day even after smacking a MK2 Escort into a tree!
