Need Brands Hatch info
 

I am thinking about getting my husband a racing experience at Brands Hatch. Has anyone done this? I'd love some information.

Try searching on google.com using "brands hatch racing experience"<BR><BR>I tried and it came up with several options. I bought this for my mother several years ago and she had a great time. We used 'Red Letter Days'.

I did one with the Nigel Mansell Racing School. You get about 10 laps in a high-powered BMW to begin with, then the instructor takes you out in the BMW around the circuit at about 80-100mph - wheels screeching, everything! Then you're into the single seater, and although you're limited to only using 3rd and 4th gear, you're still doing about 60 mph but only sitting a couple of inches off the ground. It was brilliant fun!<BR><BR>There is - as I recall - a short ride available in a two seater sports car, which is also pretty fast.<BR><BR>Of course, if money is no object, then the Arrows and McLaren F1 teams offer rides with their test drivers in twin seaters at Silverstone - but you really have to be prepared to splash the cash on that one!

I've searched and searched the net for information and found just basic descriptions. I want a blow-by-blow if anyone has done this at Brands Hatch.<BR><BR>Keith, I found the F1 experience - $1,200, which is a bit out of my league. Sounded great though. I'm sure the experience I bought will be like yours at Nigel Mansell.
