GFY - There will be pictures and videos. Lots of videos...

DTS - £400 including travel (fuel and channel tunnel) and a place to stay. I will be driving around in a Clio 172 Sport (with racing mods) and an Exocet with a 220bhp super charged MX5 engine in. I might snag a go in a Nissan GT-R (if it makes it over) and a Nissan 350Z (if they are brave enough to let me)

The 350Z is actually pretty friendly when pushed hard if you've got a nice set of tires (unless theirs has some crazy mods).

Super jealous dude, that's silverstone right?

Spa Francorchamps

Super jealous dude, that's silverstone right? I may have to make this trip at some point in the future.

Don't want to be a spoilsport here, but I'd curb your enthusiasm for a while. I'm not sure if this is the same sort of arrangement, but there's similar events here in the Netherlands on the circuit of Zandvoort (and perhaps Assen as well), but what they do is they let you drive in those sports cars, but you're lead by a pacecar which goes frustratingly slow. You're driving with a bunch of peeps in the same type of car all in a row. Overtaking is not allowed and you aren't allowed to drop gaps bigger than like 20 meters or so (so tailing behind and then pressing the throttle down to get a nice feel for the acceleration is a big no no). They're not letting you go all out pedal-to-the-metal race style. Even their "drifting experience" is nothing more than you riding shotgun while some race driver does the drifting. They also let you go like 2 laps per car.

For your sake I hope this arrangement is nothing like that, but if I were you I'd look into that before picturing yourself blasting through those corners like a maniac.

oddly enough, they let you do full throttle on the public road with a hired lambo if you want to.
friend of mine did that a few weeks back. he expected that there would be a billion limitations but the dude said "nah bro, do whatever you want. just don't crash".
only cost him like 50 euros for half an hour.

Ugh. A truly serious question: who would pay money for something so awful and disappointing and how are they still in business?

What's stopping you from driving like a lunatic ?

Erm, getting kicked out of the premises if you do, I guess?

But that happens after you've driven like a lunatic, over 10 laps whilst lapping most of the grid and wrapping the car around the lampost.

What kind of moronic reasoning is that? I mean, what's preventing you from driving like a lunatic on public roads? Getting arrested and jailed you say? Yeah, but that only happens after the fact

pretty sure you're liable for any damage.
