    Guys who run this are superb.

    Or date dependent i could do something as i'm based in West Yorks. Although driving one would have been a far bigger thrill for me at that age and i can't offer that.

    Pm me if you need to.

    Hi guys, I just want to say thay the majority of you have hearts of gold on here, You are a fantastic bunch of guys and you should be proud of this.

    I am trying with all the track experience people again, Although my son is not old enough to drive in the juniour experience i am working to see if i can persuade them to take him a run round the track a couple of times, However their hearts seem to be made more of stone and just say he has to be 12 years old to take part?

    On the subject of hiring, I cant hire till end of october, I only been driving since october 2007 and all places require me to have held my licence for a minimum of 2 years. Plus i only have an Auto licence which means i cant drive a car with a clutch pedal. However i noticed there are many semi auto ferarri's which i can drive. So that puts that idea out for a while unless someone wants to hire me theirs for a weekend which i cant see happening lol

    I am really serious but having my son for only 10 hours on a sunday i dont want to be spending 3 hours each way driving based on the idea that we wont get there till 12 mid day and hope that he may get a ride in the small amount of time we would get at the event.

    Don't really do any events or big car meets anymore, they get quite repetitive. I prefer to do things with friends which usually occurs on the Yorks Moors or heading into Europe these days.

    Sent a pm, so if i can find a date that suits you then we can arrange something.
