My 12 yr old son's Lambo drive
Very special day for me watching my lad Nathan drive a Gallardo. He got to 73mph and had a very proud Dad.

"Everyman" do them, I think the only requirement is they have to be 4'10 and my lad's just reached it as he's one of the smallest in his class.
Then Ł30 for the USB stick.

I done something similar at knockhill but i only got to drive a 1.2 corsa
We were repeatedly told "It is NOT a race track" and "stay off the curbs"
I got up to 70mph but still only managed a 3 minute 30 second lap

i've done that, and its the best driving experience you can do IMO, x10 better than the supercars
also, fairplay to your lad, must be proud!

Yes mate extremely proud.
I've done it before and you're right, it is so much better than any experience as you can really give it the beans. Mrs bought it me again because the video didn't work last time and she wants to see what it's like.
