So... I bought this as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend so he could drive a GTR, R8 and a DB9.
We traveled over an hour to get to the event, finding out it’s an air field, expecting it to be a track or a circuit. When we arrived, he gave them the paperwork, not asking for a drivers license, and then we were told he was only driving the Nissan GTR and it would cost extra to drive any other cars. On top of that, he was pressurised to pay £25 for insurance as they stated there would be a £5000 excess if any damage is caused to the car! An extra £5 had to be paid for a minibus ride round the “track” at an exhilarating 15mph.
Having being told to arrive 45 minutes early, we waited for 30 minutes before having the safety brief (lasting about 10 minutes) and then had to wait another 30 minutes to get into the car. To be honest, it felt like a lot of waiting around.
When they called for him to get into the car, they told him he was a PASSENGER! This was frustrating considering he had paid for the insurance for the car and they should have realised that. Once he’d finished, we went back to reception and asked what was going on and thankfully they acknowledged their mistake and off he went driving the GTR. We didn’t bother attempting to see the video/photos at the end as we just knew it would cost extra (thankfully we didn’t - I’ve learnt photos cost £25).
The waiting time wouldn’t have been an issue if the driving experience itself had lasted longer than 5 minutes. The “track” was also super busy and so far away. The staff were friendly and everyone had a smile on their face but it really doesn’t change the fact that we felt ripped off BIG TIME.
On the upside, my boyfriend got to go round the track twice, as a passenger and driver👍🏼 It was definitely an experience but not a good one and I will definitely not be recommending this to anyone.
