An enjoyable experience. The hut by the skid pan could be more welcoming though with the aid of refreshments etc. Also a simple shelter located by the skid pan would be useful for guests who aren't taking part to stay dry & sit if they want to film/take pictures, particularly if its raining.
It was exciting to drive a Porsche and a Mini
Great experience for son’s 18th. Good instructor, friendly and knowledgeable.
Fantastic hour with the super friendly team at Thruxton, can’t wait to return.
So much fun. I would recommend it to anyone.
Did not take place, it was cancelled at the last minute
Informative briefing and a great experience
Would reccomend
Great product useful to know how to control a skid. And very much good fun to do
I was given my time on the skid pan as a present by a friend. It was a miserable wet afternoon. She and I are both in our late 70’s were together in the cars. We had a really great experience. Learning a lot about how to control the two cars, a Porsche Carrera and a Mini Cooper. The Porsche was much more fun and easier to drive. We took it in turns to go round the skid pan. My only thought was we would have felt less dizzy if we had been allowed to go around the other way. Our instructor was very good and kept in contact with us by radio. It was both frightening and enjoyable, now I feel much more comfortable about driving in wet and icy conditions. I would recommend the Virgin experience to anyone who wants to improve their driving skills.
Very fun and easy going
Should be compulsory
Great cars, both FWD and RWD (manual & automatic), the track was also very well prepared, despite the weather on that day.
Really fun, and good value for the experience.
Excellent and constructive instruction in the briefing and during the driving experience. I now feel more confident in spotting when the vehicle is losing traction and controlling a skid.
Anyone thinking of doing this book it you wouldn’t regret it. Wanted to do this a long time and had so much fun and instructor was amazing would recommend to anyone
