Get ready to meet the
Lotus Exige on this
experience! The Exige is
the Lotus you'll most
want to buy. It's as
simple and
straight-forward as that.
It's raw yet actually
pretty practical for a
sportscar and it drives
like a dream. This Lotus
Exige drive will let you
discover just what a
delight this car is. The
Lotus Exige V6 350 is an
improved version of the
already brilliant Exige
S. Every body panel and
part of the Exige has
been examined to ensure
it is as high-performing
and light-weight as
possible. And all that
scrutinising means even
more kilos have been
whittled away leaving
this Exige weighing in at
just 1125kg. No wonder
the Lotus Exige drives so
fast for a car that has a
fairly middling (in
supercar terms) 345bhp.
And as you will find out
on your drive this Lotus
Exige really does shift.
We have just one word for
you - torque. The very
first gear shift you
experience in this Exige
will be memorable for
sure. And not just
because of the
acceleration you'll be
feeling. The actual
gearshift on the manual
Exige is a sheer joy -
it's all exposed (saving
weight again!) and it's
like something from a
robotic sci-fi movie.
Utterly mesmerising.
You'll need to keep you
eyes firmly on the track
though during your Lotus
Exige drive. Before you
know it you'll be
reaching 60mph (the clock
stops at 3.7 seconds for
that one) and the rev
counter will be bouncing
towards 7000rpm. The
first corner you take
will show you how
well-balanced this car is
with it's low centre of
gravity. You feel like
you're just on the edge
of understeer but then
the car grips and away
you go. With what the
motoring journos call
'keen throttle response'
the Exige is the perfect
partner for you on the
track. It gives as much
back as you put in so you
can either go for a
cruise or really push
this car and it reacts
favourably to both. We
think you will love this
mid-engined specimen of
British-built automotive
engineering. What's more
you don't see many Exiges
on the roads and even
fewer of them of the
track so this Lotus Exige
experience will be right
up your street.

If you've ever wondered
what a Caterham 7 driving
experience is like let us
enlighten you on this
legendary car before you
decide whether or not to
take it for a spin at a
circuit of your choosing
near you. Yes it has what
can only be described as
retro looks but that's
because the design is
decades old. But boy is
it a good one. Thanks to
a Mr Colin Chapman his
design won many a motor
race. And yes it does
only have 150bhp which is
about the same as a
decent SUV on the roads
today. But there's one
very very significant
difference. The weight.
And that's what makes the
experience of driving a
Caterham 7 what it is -
utterly thrilling. It's
all about function over
form with the Caterham 7.
Forget your modern
driving experience
gubbins like ABS traction
control air conditioning
and even central locking
this car is stripped down
to the bar minimum. Even
the seat belts are
harnesses rather than
inertia type to save
weight. All this is why
it feels almost
exoskeletal with the
exh...

Take a Caterham for a
drive on the track and
feel the power of British
motoring! We are offering
three-mile Blast and
six-mile Thrill
experiences at a race
track near you with this
nationwide track day
operator. The Caterham
car company has been the
custodian of legendary
car creator Colin
Chapman's original Seven
design since 1973.
Caterham is as passionate
about this car as those
who own and drive them.
Sold in kit form or built
in the Dartford factory
the Caterham 7 is a
modern day classic with
serious racing roots. The
aim today is still very
much the same as when
Colin Chapman said:
'Simplify and then add
lightness'. And when you
drive this Caterham
you'll see that reducing
weight and increasing
power is what this car is
all about and has always
been about. Sure amongst
modern day supercars the
Caterham certainly looks
a lot different. The
round bug-style
headlights perched above
the front axle the curved
wheel arches the exposed
exhaust running along the
bottom of the doors...

On this thrilling
Westfield experience
you'll be taking one
nippy little sports
roadster and driving it
around a track! These
Westfield driving
experience days take
place at various circuit
venues so take your pick
and get ready to take a
Westfield Sport for a
spin.The Westfield is a
true pocket rocket. It
has the distinct
advantage of being light.
Very light in fact. Given
their tubular space frame
technology and glass
fibre body they weight in
at well under 600kg. This
is nothing for a car and
the reason why the
Westfields drive so well.
Originally a personal
project by Chris Smith he
built his bespoke car in
the garage of his home
called Westfield House.
The car gave more than a
nod to Colin Chapman's
Lotus Seven design and
everyone who saw Chris's
car loved it so he
started building them for
other people. Now it's a
well-established sports
car company that's 100%
British-owned under the
Potenza Sports Cars brand
making over 400
hand-built cars every
year. For these Westfield
experience days you'll be
driving a Westfield
Sport. But this session
isn't just about the
driving it's about trying
to tame this fierce
little bundle of
acceleration that makes
it like no other
performance car out
there. Get it right and
you'll have the car
entering and exiting the
corners at the perfect
speed on the perfect
trajectory. And we have
to admit when you do get
it right it's an awesome
feeling! Helping you hit
the sweet spot in the
Westfield will be the
Lead Driving Consultant
who'll be conducting the
pre-drive briefing.
They'll explain what
driving the Westfield is
like what the car is like
your racing lines and
what happens out on the
circuit. That's the
track-side theory done
now it's time to head to
the track and put
practice in motion. Race
suit and helmet on jump
in to the compact cockpit
of the curvy Westfield
Sport harness up and get
ready to feel the power.
And being just inches
from the ground you will
definitely be feeling
every burst of
acceleration. The
unparalleled performance
of the Westfield is
matched by quick and
composed handling. You'll
need to have your wits
about you to get this
roadster lapping at a
decent pace. But there's
no doubting you won't
forget your Westfield
experience. Just such
good proper grass-roots
driving fun.
