Chesterfield Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Ill have to discuss this with the boss, never done anything like a track day before - and to be honest Im not too keen on taking my own car on an event like that, I'm just too unlucky! Being open to novices only does interest me though. Does anyone know of anything like this where you get provided with the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 On the latest info about Hullavington, the email say you can hire their Elise for 10 mins.. Lotus Elise Hire at this event This is your chance to drive this fantastic sports cars. For just £30 you can drive one of our Lotus Elise sports cars with an instructor in the passenger seat coaching you for a 10 minute session. We are also offering high speed passenger rides in this car at £20 for three laps. These sessions can be booked in advance by calling us or on the day if space is available. Cheap, short time but will give intro to how safe it can be. But if you want a full day there is plenty that do Caterham/Elise for hire but they normally cost 3-400 a day.
