BEST Day ever
WOW, what an incredible experience driving both the BMW M2 and single seater round the Silverstone Stowe circuit yesterday. I was both excited and nervous about this as the whole experience feels a bit hectic for your average road driver however the instructors and staff are amazing. The single seaters are just mega. CV has been updated and sent you McLaren this morning offering my services for an F1 drive next year! Also the procedures to box off COVID are well managed too…

Excellent
This was an absolutely brilliant experience. I have done a number of track days before and this is by the far the best. The experience is professionally run, well managed and organised. The driving is great - not expected to hold back in the M2 or single seater - drive as fast as you like to your limit.

Great day out
My son and I both went to Silverstone for a race car experience and really enjoyed the whole experience from watching others taking part on the circuit, then the drivers briefing which was both informed and fun. Then on to the main event of learning the track with an experienced race driver , to then driving probably the nearest you will get to a real race car. Great advise leads you to a great time with professional people looking after you. Highly recommended

Great
Great experience, but 12 cars on track at the same time made it too crowded... Should ideally reduce that number to 6-8 max, and then it would be pretty much perfect!
