Namely a Ferrari 360, a Porsche 996, a Lotus Elise and a Subaru Impreza WRX. It was a birthday present from my wife for my 30th last year.

If anyone's considered one of these, go for it, a fantastic time. You get to sample the speed of the Ferrari and Porsche and also get to throw about the impreza and Lotus.

Basically, they've made a track up on an airfield and you get 3 laps in each car. We were there about 3 hours, and it was nice to see the others and how their driving was. (I might have been over enthusiastic in both the Porsche and Subaru, as I kept catching up the ferrari)

My choice of which one I've go for if i had a chance to go in another one? The impreza. Very Rapid and superb handling (and it might be to do with the instructor who was very encouraging!!)

Also, for £30, I got Mrs Neil a couple of laps driving a Ferrari 355.

Here's some photos of it all:

The full line up

And Mrs Neil's treat

It was an impreza WRX, rally prepared so stripped out too. Not realy any restrictions, only to get as fast as you can before the "Brake" sign.

I recommend it, brilliant day.

No, nothing like that, but was a bit of squealing whenever I could.
