Graeme Posted June 27, 2007 Author Share Posted June 27, 2007 i actually prefered the GT3 - it was smoother than the ferrari - the ferrari was very hard on the gears and brakes e.t.c but felt nice when giving it some beans - where as the porshe was smooth - harder suspension mind but more comfotable inside i would say. new fav car there for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gti.tom Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Hate to rain on the parade, but I did this day on Friday. It's run by Vision Motorsport and takes place in an old US Air force base. The 360 Modena was a let down. I paid an extra £30 and took out a 355 which was much better. The Porsche was dull but practical. Sadly they only let you drive the ferrari and porsche in straight lines, which was Shite, and Graeme, sorry mate, both cars only get up to 110 max on the course. It is impossible you did 140mph for various reasons. An argument took place while I was there regarding this. I personally got very frustrated during the day after not being allowed to rev the cars as they should be and having to change gear very very slowly. The best part of the day was the Lotus Elise, Z3 M and WRX STI. Which they let you drive round corners and have a bit of fun in. I enjoyed the experience, but you didnt get enough time in the cars and the course they laid out was too plain. Only thing I learnt that day, there is something called 'practical power', the ferrari was simply too powerful to have fun in on the public road. Now the STI, hmm, that was good. I might be looking at Evo's, maybe, possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tez162003 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 when i did one i found they limit you, such as you cant drop down a gear when coming onto the stright etc, 140mph, doubt it! although the passenger ride i had in the porsche we got 140 mph but i dont think it was at the same place, mine was through everyman motorsport! i did a drift day friday and that was so much better than a ferrari day!
