Pretty much every day around the UK, drivers looking for excitement and speed are taking part in super car driving experiences to sample something they cannot afford. We are talking about Ferraris, Porsches, Aston Martins and lets not forget those rally cars and things that may go a bit slower like off road experiences.
They may seem a bit expensive at first, bearing in mind you will probably spend more time talking about what you are going to do longer than the actual driving experience. But when you take into account the cost of tyres, sometime £1000 each and the parts and servicing, it is no wonder racing track days are not cheap.
But speak to those who have just completed an experience and you will get a different picture, mainly it was worth every penny as you cannot appreciate the shear power of these vehicles until you actually drive one. So for now, even in a recession, these racing track day experiences are likely to high on the gift list.
