20 minutes track time for £25
Earlier in the year I bought a Rally experience for my son through Motorsport Vision and I just got their latest brochure. Amongst all the usual
"experiences" was something I hadn't seen before: Arrive and Drive session on a track (Brands, Cadwell and Snetterton) without
having to pay for a whole day. I've just booked a session at Brands on 21st December (nice pre-Christmas present). I guess the only downside
is that there may be loads of first timers and boy racers but £25 doesn't seem bad value if you live reasonably near to one of the tracks and
since I have put off doing a track day this year because of the cost (usually £100+) it seemed worth a go.

That sounds like excellent value to me. Personally though, you would have to pay me to drive an MSV prepared car!

That looks like a great idea to me. Very tempted.

hmmm... 420 miles/7 hours to get there (according to Google maps), same back, so if I left at say 2am I would be there for 9, leave at 5 and get back
for 2am the next day. £100-ish for petrol, £10 for membership, £25 for the day.
Actually, I think not (though it does sound like a bargain if you are in the area)
