I spent last Friday at Donington doing a special day with wishes4kids Basically giving sick kids rides around a sprint circuit. I've had some great days in the Fury but this was pretty special.

I think that I had one of the sicker kids in when they filmed that as I'd done that corner sideways with smoking tyres 9 out of 10 times (by demand). It wasn't about how fast we could go though, just making the kids ...although most just wanted fast/sideways/scary!

Thoroughly rewarding day

sounds an awesome way to enjoy your car and seeing the looks on the kiddies faces must of been fantastic.

nice one

I work with disabled children evweyday and wondered about getting involved inthis my self.

must of been a good day out.

unless your car never gets picked!!

Nice one Adi and a great cause too

1 million brownie points to you mate. Nice one.
I started to watch it and just filled up.
There definately ain't no justice.

All I can can say is "Great", very good cause.

The kids (boys in particular) all wanted the "supercars". After a couple of runs though they want the "fast ones". I was declared fastest by several kids but is suspect a race spec Ferrari on slicks was possibly quicker but the circuit was in my favour. It was the only thing I couldn't catch (single laps started at intervals) along with my mates R1 Pheonix.

You temper your driving to the kids. Some were very ill ("Go fast... I'll be dead next week" others handicaped. Thumbs up is faster, down is slower; I had one thumbs down all day As long as they go home it's worth it.

That is such fun - we have something similar in Cape Town organised by Joe Struwig with an event every few months that is a huge hit with both kids and drivers. More people should emulate his example in other cities. See link below
