Dual control car for blind drivers

I wonder if one of you guys can help me out?

A year or two ago at Donington (i think) there was a charity that had a seven with dual controls that allowed someone to drive despite being blind. I think they were doing laps of the track too.

can anyone remember the name of the charity? I'd like to talk to them about the possibility of doing something for the blokes at Headway in Nottingham.

Cheers

Paul

Sorry, I can't help with that. However Bristol Kit Car Club are currently buiding a seven for disabled drivers and they may have the info' you seek.

I also found various events that have been held at Donnington, and the contact for them is the "Guide Dogs Nottingham Mobility team"
