Exciting And A Little Bit Scary!

I had a wonderful experience. My instructor was great. He was shouting commands like machine gun fire and my head was exploding with the stimulus but it really helped to get me focused on the correct line to take, how much to brake when to steer etc. I was certainly not a natural but with a gentle shove and encouragement, I was pleasantly surprised at what I could do. I loved it and was a little scared at the same time. I would recommend the Lotus Elise Thrill to everyone!

Very well organised and a great experience. Both the driver and the friends and family well taken care of. The only problem was that it was intended to get it out of my husband's system, but it backfired and now he wants a Lotus Elise even more!
A Really Fantastic Driving Experience

The whole day was fab, including the hospitality, driving experience and the Rockingham Areana. The team on the day were both friendly and professional. The Lotus Elise is a real car to drive, fast and handles the track really well. Thank you to Red Letter Days for allowing me this opportunity to drive this car.
Thrill A Minute At Three Sisters Track

Three Sisters Race Circuit
Three Sisters is the perfect track for the Elise and I was fortunate enough to arrive on a warm sunny day. After an informative and humourous briefing we all assembled on the pit wall for helmet fitting and much drooling over the Aston, Ferrari, Lotus and Porsche line up. Groups of 3 were despatched to Mini Coopers to be driven round by the resident Stigs who explained the brake and turn in positions. After 3 hairy laps I was first up in the Elise. The Elise is everything you read about, quick, nimble and grips to tarmac like a jack russell on a postman's leg. After a couple of laps I'd found most of the lines and was squeezing all I could out of the accelerator and brake pedals. This misplaced confidence caught me out on lap 8 when I was a bit early on the power out of turn 7 and the backend got a bit lively. I will definitely be back for more!
Very Enjoyable, Would Love To Have Another Go

Had a great time and a lot of laughs as my wife filmed the Racing driver in the Lotus then me, as you can imagine it looked like I was going at a snail's pace when in fact I was travelling pretty fast, the experience was fantastic and I would love to try it again and would recommend to my friends.
Superb Experience

What a wonderful 60th birthday suprise my Red Letter Day at the 3 Sisters Race Track was. I have never enjoyed a drive as much in my 43 years behind the wheel. The sight of the super sports cars lined up in the car park when we arrived, combined with the unmistakeable 'throb' of high performance engines and the aroma of petrol fumes, meant I just couldn't wait for the experience to begin. Following a briefing where we received all the advice we needed from friendly, confident and inspiring instructors, a few laps with an instructor in a Mini Cooper was next, and then we were ready to go. I had a brilliant instructor and the drive in 'my' Elise was something I will never forget. My thanks to all the brilliant staff. Wonderful!

A gift that I will never forget, a great day out with family who enjoyed watching just as much as I did in the Lotus on the track. THRILLING is an understatement. Red Letter Days are a great gift for all ages.
Great Day

The driving experience is like nothing else, driving a car that you know you could never afford to own. The staff and instructors were very friendly and helpful, making the day even more enjoyable. My guest was well looked after and briefed on the activities of the day. I would recommend this driving experience as well as others to my friends without a second thought.
Absolutely Fantastic!

The day ran smoothly, everyone involved was kind and helpful, the drivers were fantastic, and so was the tuition! Would recommend to anyone that likes to drive fast and be driven faster!!
Started Off Bewildered, Then Got Blown Away

Arrived at the venue with my 'audience' which was a bit embarrassing, but within minutes all the formalities were out of the way. My instructor had so much confidence in his ability that after a lap or two it rubbed off on me and I started to enjoy myself instead of worrying! The whole thing was a total buzz, thanks for a great morning, I'll be back!

What A Fantastic 50Th Birthday Present!

This was a gift from my sister-in-law that was arranged at 1 day's notice. We arrived at Rockingham and everything was made even better by the organisation of the event. I felt like an eighteen year old again. (However it was a struggle to get in and out of the Lotus Elise. Old age creeping in.) Once again many thanks!
Something Special To Celebrate My 50Th Birthday

Enjoyable experience, something special to celebrate my 50th birthday, something to always now be able to say that I have done. It was quite entertaining for the family watching me trying to get in and out of the car, I didn't realise it would be that small or low down! Thank you for the experience !
