Driving Experience - Croft Tomorrow

[dpr59]

Got a short notice driving experience for £99 for croft tomorrow.
Inc a Porsche Caymen and an Aston Martin Vantage.
Well it sounds better than an afternoon in the office.

Just a big kid really.

nice one, i done one for my 18th was a good laugh

i've always wondered what the cayman is like to drive.

 

[dpr59]

Brilliant afternoon.

 

[jug]

so, is the cayman as good as everyone says? was it noticably more capable than the aston?

 

[Hellcat]

Ginetta also?

That gives the big cars a run for their money - very good power to weight ratio.

The Ginetta was quick, but would need someone better than me.
Just could get on top of it.

The Caymen cabin is, well, not spacious.
But handles extremely well.

The Aston.
Stunning
Still pulling past 120mph as I went past a Caymen then braked and through a corner faultlessly. It flatters a moderate driver. Also very well suited to left foot braking with the semi auto box.

Good drivers circuit.
Some very technical corners, get the first wrong you your stuffed in the next.
The tightest of harpins onto the stright.
Also a couple of long stretches where you can open the taps.

To drive any track I'd still go to Brands Hatch.
Nothing beats the feeling you get going through Paddock.

Hope you enjoy your drive.
