Not sure if anyone else has seen this(might be on here soewhere cant be arsed to look at this time), but looks awesome, Basicly get to drive all the vxr range and get driven round the track by a vx Btcc driver. Me and a pal are booked on weds 10th at Brands Hatch, not bad for 120 imo...

Yeah, check out VXRonline mate. Dougie on there arranges them.
They are really really good value for money. I haven't done one but they are certainly worth the time and money.
People come away realising just how good the VXR range is and instead of listening to that cuntchops Clarkson.

Usually 3 laps in each car iirc. Free to pick and choose as you wish though, so you can come and go as you wish between the cars.
The driving lasts about 1hr iirc - so plenty of time to get a feel for all the products.
The instructors usually encourage you along after they are assured you are competant controlling the car (throttle, steering, lines etc) and show good awareness.

Thinking of booking Thursday morning at Thruxton. You should do it too
