Who fancies training and a timed lap at the Top Gear test track?

Less driving, more natter. For when you just want to hookup.

Do they take you round in one of their cars, or do you have to let them drive yours?

no not an attitude thing or anything like that. i just think he is making money of the back of the top gear name he runs the garage plans motor sport don't know what qualifications he has to teach but he just drew a map of the circuit and a demo in the car told me about  braking hard in a straight line  :o :o like i didn't know that and to heel and toe when changing down as it was wet  :o :o ::) don't get me wrong it has to be done just to go around the track BUT don't go there to learn about driving on a track it is much to shorter time to do so.

When I spoke to them on the phone it sounded a bit of shambles.  If someone who runs a garage is taking you round the track then I'm not going to bother.  I want a racing instructor telling me what to do not a mechanic!
