Just Brilliant - Unmissable!!
I had the most fantastic day's driving experience at Thruxton race circuit, driving a Porsche Cayman, Aston Martin V8 Vantage and a Formula 3 Renault. The staff at Thruxton were totally professional and allayed my initial nerves. It was so great to blast these fabulous cars around the track and was a truly memorable day. I would definitely recommend this to any driver!!
Probably one of the best gifts you could give anyone is a Red Letter day at Thruxton. The cars, instructors and atmosphere are just incredible and you get such a rush of adrenalin - and I was only the spectator! My boyfriend is still grinning from ear-to-ear. Thanks to Red Letter Days from both of us.
Excellent Day.the Instructors Were Fantastic.
The instructors were fantastic and filled me with confidence. The admin was also outstanding, with everything ready and very organised.
Superbly organised day, the instructors were excellent and everyone was friendly and seemed to really want me to have a great day! Will definitely be back to drive again. The best birthday present I have ever had!
All good, instructors were excellent, cars great...and driving the Formula Renault was a brilliant experience.
Fantastic Day Driving Dream Cars
I had a fantastic time driving the Aston Martin V8 Vantage but the Formula Renault racing car was also a brilliant experience!! The facilities at the circuit were very good for my family to watch my driving. I have also watched my driving again back at home on the in-car DVD. I have recommended the day to all my friends, and I very much intend to go back and try some more of the cars... Thanks for a great day.
Fantastic Day Exciting, Will Remember It Forever.
The day was extremely well organised, the instructors and administration staff were fantastic very helpful. No waiting, the cars were all brilliant, all in all it was a fantastic day.
Amazing. Still Buzzing Today.
The Thruxton guys were fantastic. Everything went like clockwork. The amount I learned from the instructors was incredible. The Aston is a very special car, not one I would normally get to drive. They let me fleece round a racetrack with advice on how to go even faster! Amazing! I was buzzing afterwards and woke this morning still grinning. Thanks.
The day was brilliant and all the staff at Thruxton were great. The Porsche and Aston were both great to drive, but the Formula Renault was even better. Would HIGHLY recommend this experience to anyone.
Truly An Unforgettable Amazing Day!!!
Learnt some new tricks, drove some amazing cars, staff were helpful. Want to do it again!!!!
Great service, great instruction and overall just a great morning
Fantastic Car, Thrill To Drive
I was really looking forward to driving the Aston Martin and was not disappointed, instructors were great, learnt new driving skills and would thoroughly recommend this to any car enthusiast.
Great To See Beaming Smile On My Husband's Face
This experience was bought for my husband's 50th birthday. I couldn't have chosen any as worthwhile as seeing his expression when he got into the Aston Martin and started his drive. This was a dream come true for him and one he truly deserved. The staff at the circuit were very friendly and encouraging as he was a little bit nervous. He is now saving up to buy an Aston Martin as he enjoyed the experience so much. Many thanks to all your staff who helped make the day so enjoyable.
Excellent Day, Brilliant Experience
The staff at Thruxton went out of their way to make this an enjoyable and unforgettable day. From the initial drive round with the instructor through the Porsche and Aston Drives, to the Single seater, the instructors were professional and courteous, giving good advice and ensuring that I got the best out of the day.
Good instruction from the team at Thruxton. I feel I learnt a lot. Now saving for an Aston Martin - what a great car! The last part driving the single seater was fantastic.
From the moment we arrived, everyone involved made sure I would enjoy the day. Excellent would love to visit again.
I had a great day out driving a Porsche Cayman, then the V8 Vantage followed by some laps in the Formula Renault. The Porsche was great to start in the and the instructor really helped me to get to grips with driving on the track. That was followed by the chance to take the Aston Martin for a spin and given all the glamour associated with the Aston, that was just fabulous. I've got to say the experience of the Formula Renault at the end left me with a massive grin. You really felt like you were racing and truly getting an experience of something akin to what you see on the television. Like when you moved your head to the side to check the mirrors and the windforce pushed it back. And with the little steering wheel and the cramped conditions. It was just amazing to have the opportunity to do 5 laps in one and if you're doing a driving day you should make it a must.
What A Brilliant Day And All Caught On Camera!
Had a fantastic time and your operations team all worked together to make it a brilliant experience.
Superb Driving Experience
Thruxton is so well organised considering the amount of people taking part, l did not have to wait around for my turn to drive the various cars in my programme. You also have the chance to add to your day and purchase laps in other cars. A brilliant day all round.
Awesome Car, Awesome Drive, It Made My Day
It was a great experience from start to finish. The staff at Thruxton were very helpful and friendly and the drives in the Porsche Cayman and Aston Martin Vantage were superb, especially the Aston. The formula Renault drive was an experience in itself, but probably not one I'd repeat as I like a bit of comfort these days, though I'm glad I did it just for the experience.
Fantastic Supercar Experience
The cars were just breathtaking to drive and the instructors at Thruxton were excellent. All of the instructors were friendly, patient and very knowledgeable.
You Feel Like Signing Up To Race Lewis Hamilton!
A bit scary in the beginning being behind the wheel of an expensive car but the instructors soon put you at ease and encourage you to put your foot down but with safety in mind. By the time the day is finished you feel like signing up to race Lewis Hamilton!
Everyone was very helpful and professional. The racing drivers were fantastic and pushed me to my limit. I was impressed with some of their credentials! Some of them were professional racing drivers and with championships under their belt! I can't wait go back again!
Just Unbelievable - You Have To Try It!
I would like to thank all you guys and dolls at Red Letter Days and Thruxton for a truly fantastic day, my feet still haven't touched the ground! You must try it yourselves, then you'll know what I'm talking about. The cars, the circuit and the staff were brilliant.
Truly Brilliant And Exhilarating
Having arrived at Thruxton the staff made we feel very welcome and they were very informative. The cars I drove were of a very high standard as were the instructors, making this a truly brilliant and exhilarating experience. I hope one day to treat myself to another day like this.
Thoroughly enjoyable day, well managed and organised.
Great Day Out At Thruxton
It was my 60th Birthday present - and what a present. It was an exceptional day. I enjoyed driving the Aston Martin, a Porsche and a Renault racing car. I was well looked after by the driving team at Thruxton. I now have a video to prove that it was me hurtling around the circuit. I certainly would recommend this day to others.

What An Absolutely Brilliant Day
Had an excellent day driving around a race track in a Porsche and an Aston Martin Vantage learning all about the racing line. All the instructors were helpful, friendly and good fun. By the end of the day I think I had cracked it and went on to drive 5 great laps in a single seater Formula Renault. Would love to do it all again.
I Felt Like Sir Stirling Moss In His Prime!
Very well organised, staff were plentiful and very helpful. The drivers understood your excitment even down to standing aside whilst you had a photo taken, and made you feel a little special, I left thinking I was Sir Stirling Moss in his prime!!!!
Exceptionally exciting experience, wished it had lasted all day. Apart from that, couldn't have been better!
Organisation was very good, both for the booking process and circuit attendance, the whole day was exceptionally enjoyable.
