£40 sounds a bargain. Anyone done this before, what's the format?

Woohoo is all i need to say :D was great fun but make sure you don't have new tyres :burnout: especially if you drive like me :lol: as you will go home with much less tread. It was my first experience at spinning a car at high speed 70mph+ and being shown how well your car handles from the passenger seat using 1 finger :? Also good to go flat out and not have to worry about others or the plod catching you.
Best bit for me was the short slalom where i showed the elises how to do it 8) and was 2nd fastest only a little slower than the exige. May even join you if i can get the day off.

Talk to me at Donington if you want to know more ( also have a search on youtube for others videos)

Meant to have a burger van on site but wasn't open when i was there (didn't really have time to use it anyway) and you got to a pub up the road for lunch (from about £5 upwards). Suggest you have breakfast before, Ashlins is about 5 mins away towards Ongar which does a good breakfast but not cheap. and take a drink with you.
