Default ferrari experiance

some of you may have known that simb 2s girlfreind kelly and my lovely wife nicola got together and bought us a ferrari driving experiance day at bruntingthorp airodrome and it was amazing they took us on are demo lap in black bugeye scooby which was fu**ed,we had it in are minds we wernt going to say what we drive incase they thought we might know what we were doing and then we would look stupid and probably crash,but we didnt. the instructor was briliant he just let us have a free rain.as for the ferrari it was great and i want one but we had a flappy paddle gearbox that is not the best si was ok with it but i didnt like it.it was red as they all should be it also was a soft top not the best but beggers cant be chosers.



i know it looks like a girl but it was a man.

What can I say, it was an excellent day, weather was spot on aswell!

I was nervous before and whan I found out it was the ole flappy paddle I was a bit more!!, it was fine though I did'nt think it would be that easy. The instructor was excellent and kind of let you get on with it, but if you span you would be taken off at the drop of a hat, which was sad as you could'nt push it round the bends as much as you wanted to. Daz and me suffered a bit of hindsight and should of done this on the last corner of the last lap!!

I would recommend this to anybody as I will post the pics later of mine and Daz's grins when we got out of the car....the coat hanger effect


Matt we had 4 laps in the car


Will get pics up later when account sorted out.

Look at you! Lucky boys. I hope you repaid the girls suitably?

Did you tell them (instructor) after what you drove?

no we didnt tell the instructor what we drove we let them make there own minds up.
no matt we didnt try any others we could have done but it would have cost sh** loads to drive all of them which i wanted to do.we also had a free off road pasenger ride which was also briliant ive still got the hand marks sqeezed in my leg by my misses.

Looks awesome! Me and my mates rented a Ferrari 348 and a Viper RT10 in vegas last september. I was driving the Viper most of the day but did have a go of the Ferrari. To be honest was a bit disappointed with the Ferrari, but it was an old one! The Viper on the other hand, f**king hell!! What a beast of a car, had 355 wide tyres on the back and still spun in the first 3 gears on a red hot vegas road! What a machine! Should of seen the looks we got when we took them through a drive through People were even taking photos of us Everyone rushed to the drive through window to serve us, perhaps thats what you need to do to get tidy service at Mc D's

Looks like you had a good day, I've done bruntingthrope on a Palmer racing day, fantastic day and track to drive. But we were aloud to rag the **** out of all the cars, they did say if we didn't spin we weren't trying hard enough!!!!!!!
