The instuctor was very good and made the day fun and informative, with clear and precise instructions.
What A Fantastic Day - Ride Of Your Life
Well received by all the staff at Prestwold Hall driving centre. Had an absolutly wonderful experience which l would recommend to anyone. The tuition was great and the instructors were excellent and very patient which made the day. I have never driven like that before and it was an eye opener, even for an oldie like me! Thanks once again for a fantastic day.
The process of booking was so simple and on my arrival the staff of Vision Motorsport were really helpful. When I booked on the internet I was tempted to book at another location, being lured by the newer vehicles. No need for any concerns, the Pumas were more than up for the job, more than could be said for me. But, after the day's coaching I felt like I had got it, not perfect, but very ready to book some more days.
Fantastic Fun! A Great Day, Even For Spectators.
Exciting. Exhilarating. A great laugh for everyone taking part. Plenty to see and do after the event around the circuit as well.
After a short briefing I was in the drivers seat within minutes of getting to the track. I thought I got faster and faster with each drive - but then reality dawned as I finished the day in the passenger seat with a real rally driver - wow!!
This is an unforgettable day that you will remember forever. Handbrake turns and power slides made easy! The instructors are friendly, fun, patient and extremely knowledgeable. They make it look so easy and then teach you so well that it actually is easy - when you know how! I would thoroughly recommend this Red Letter Day to anyone - those who love driving and those that don't! Just remember to let your hair down and push that accelerator flat to the floor!
Weather Was Awful - Excellent!!!!!!
What a truly fantastic afternoon's fun. Great instructors - so calm and encouraging. Finished off the day in a rally prepared Mitsubishi Evo on wet tarmac, Yee Ha!!
Really good fun - will be returning!!
I've thought about doing something like this for years. It was so worth it I'm going back, obviously I'd love to be in the car all day but the time you get is plenty to leave you buzzing all week. Such a laugh, thrill and rare experience. Nothing to be scared of either, really good, helpful and patient instructors, anyone could do it. Do rallying, not track I say!
Unforgettable!! I Had A Truly Brilliant Time.
The whole experience was excellent. Great briefing and then continuous tuition whilst in the car. I thought it would be a lot easier than it turned out to be but after the second 10 minute session I was feeling like a rally driver, well sort of! Brilliant fun and I would love to do this again.
A Great Thrill And Huge Amount Of Learning
I felt the day was extremely well organised and certainly great fun. I learnt so much in such a short time. All the instructors were friendly, helpful and approachable and my instructor was excellent. He was encouraging and enabled me to really develop a feel for the car.
Feel Like The Stig For A Day
It was only when we entered the Rally School complex and saw the Escort and Subaru Rally cars parked up that the nerve ends started to tingle and I realised that I really was about to have a lot of fun. The briefing was succinct and informative. Without delay I was first up with my instructor and he showed me what a rally prepared Escort Mark II could do - and it's pretty amazing. After a couple of adrenaline pumping laps as a passenger, I was strapped in to the driver's seat and it was my turn to burn some rubber and make some dust. You need quick and strong hands (no power steering) and 100% concentration as through the radio mic, the instructor taught me how to handle the car and the course. Each of my three sessions were quicker and more exciting and I left wanting more. A brilliant experience.
Great Day Out. Fantastic Tutoring.
Good day out. Well organised. Excellent tutoring. Plenty of in-car time. Very enjoyable.
The drivers and instructors were wonderful guys.
Fantastic For Even A 'Non Motor Sport Fan!'
A great day and a great venue (Silverstone). All the family went to watch and also had a chance to experience being a passenger in a rally car too! The instructors couldn't have been more welcoming. Brilliant!!
Fantastic day with excellent instruction. Very well organised and when the instructor takes you out at the end you'd better have some clean underwear ready! Thanks for a fantastic day!
Girl Power In A Man's World?!
I was the 1 in 9 - the single woman taking part in the Introductory Rally Driving. I can still feel the same rush of adrenaline thinking about it as I did when I got behind the wheel for the first time! I didn't think I'd be able to smile for a whole 5 hours, but that's what I did and I'm still beaming now! Silverstone was small and friendly and the camaraderie began from the offset. With expert tuition beforehand and demonstrations, I felt in my element ... first handbrake turning, then power sliding across the pit. Not once did fear envelop and the encouragment and praise made my confidence soar. If you are considering taking the ladies' version - think again! There needs to be no worry in terms of how you'll fare amongst the gentlemen, as there are no judgments and no special treatment. For this reason, I would recommend this day to anyone - with a special word to you ladies out there - YOU GO GIRL!!!
Superb day of rally driving, the instructors were great, the course was brilliant and the weather even complied and made it just perfect.
The Rally Driving Experience was fantastic! I have recommended it to everyone I have spoken to since doing it!!
It was all smoothly coordinated, I liked the text to wish me enjoyment and the rally day itself was enjoyable.
I had the best day and experience for as long as I can remember. The knowledge that I gained, I know I can use in the future and the people we met were just great and very helpful. 100% pure fun.
