Rally Driving Experience

[Dave Richardson]

I'm being spoilt this Christmas, Mrs Dave is buying me a 'Rally driving experience' day with so many popping up via google it's difficult to choose.

Whilst living in Plymouth driving up to the Midlands or South Wales is fine & favouring a Suburu WRX to play with

It's without doubt that another member has enjoyed such a day so my questions are:

Can anyone recommend a company ?

Has any member had a bad experience ? i.e paid &then found on the day there are shed loads of extras to pay for ?

regards Dave

I did one at Silverstone, it was very good but I do prefer a track/speed type day.

It was a Pug 306 which they had deliberately put bald tyres on. It is quite good fun doing handbrake turns and stuff but I found it a little tedious.

Never been on one of these , but the company is owned by the people who work on my car.

My father has known Mick ( who runs it ) for 25 years , he's extremely trustworthy when working on our cars , and I can't see why he would be any different at the rally school.

Always lots of the school cars being fixed at the Hampton Hill garage ! So I guess lots of fun is had !

Tell him Howard from The Boat Shop recommended him and you might get a discount !

Book direct.

If you go through the sites offering various "Experiences" you can easily end up paying a very significant handling fee +VAT for errr nothing really.

My son went to this lot for a whole day and had a really good time

Post #3 is a good recommendation they have good reviews but if you want true rally action in WRC cars then this is the only place to go for.

Welcome to Chris Birkbeck's Rally School - Chris Birkbeck Rally School

A proper circuit that works teams hire and Chris and his team give expert tuition you will never find another experience like this anywhere in the UK.

I've been on this one with my company. I agree with Simon. I was called Bob Marley.
