Just a quick note

Just a quick note to thank you for inviting me to the Trackday today, the LP640 is just incredible. I though it was very well organized and the staff could not have been more friendly or helpful.
Thanks again

We would recommend 6th Gear to everyone

I just wanted to get in touch to say what a fantastic day my husband and godson had on Friday 27th October. From the time we arrived to book in everyone was so friendly and nothing was too much trouble, the guys out with the cars took time to answer questions from all of us about the cars which was great for my 2 boys aged 11 and 6 who had come to watch their dad. I think we are all now addicted and will definately be back. once again thank you so much for a truly fantastic day we would recommend 6th Gear to everyone.

Expensive Hobby

Hi guys,

I would just like to say a big thank you for everyone that made me feel welcome at Elvington on Saturday. I was in the Atom and at no point did instructor hold me back in fact he was actively encouraging me to push harder which is a refreshing change.

I have a feeling this is going to turn into an expensive hobby.

just a quick email

Just a quick email to thank you for a fantastic driving experience at the weekend. I bought a Ferrari experience for my boyfriend & he loved every minute of it.

The whole day was very well organised and the instructors were great. The only down side is that it was over too quickly! I guess I now know what to buy for future birthdays & xmas gifts!

Thanks again

my parents and I would like to say thanks

Hi, my parent's and I would just like to say thank you very much for the excellence of the driving experience at Longcross. It was for my 18th birthday and really exceeded my expectations and was 100 times more fun that I had expected. I was nervous at first that I wouldn't know what to do and would make myself look a fool but you're instructors were great and really helped me get the most out of my day. My dad was especially pleased with the level of professionalism, friendliness and organisation.

Once again thanks a lot and I am sure you will hear from me again or some of my mates, your friend Danny.

PS. I have started saving for my own Lamborghini Gallardo............ha-ha

Daniel F Venue: Longcross

really enjoyed it

Really enjoyed it and I was really impressed with the event. Looking forward to my brothers experience day.

I'll have to get a lap in the Atom.

Ian Venue: Bruntingthorpe

Good experience

Good experience, if you're looking for an all out track day experience this is not the experience for you. However if you're looking for a fun speed blast and first experience of driving a supercar this is the one. Great instructor who let me put foot down and really feel power of the car. The cars themselves are a bit dated on the inside, but really you don't do this for the interior but to experience the engine. I have been twice and unfortunately if you get a wet or foggy day you're experience will suffer as you obviously can't drive too fast due to poor conditions. All in all a good experience, goes by really fast so buy more laps rather than less

Colin McFly Venue:

Would certainly recommend

Really don't understand the negative reviews? I went on the Aston Martin DBS Single Super Car Thrill at Bruntingthorpe. I absolutely loved every minute. The car was fantastic to drive and the track was great! I really got to give it a boot full! I was concerned that I'd be pootling around but it was fantastic to actually experience what the car could do. My partner and I were also able to do passenger rides on the day in a Lamborghini Gallardo LP560 which was excellent. Much faster than the Aston but the Aston made the better noise! Would certainly recommend.

William Hodge Venue:

Great service

I've tried other Supercar driving experiences before (and have been unimpressed and to be honest felt a bit ripped-off), but nothing comes close to the service offered by 6th Gear. All of the staff, from driver registration to in-car instructor, were friendly and professional, making the whole experience an absolute joy. If you're looking to try a Supercar experience, I would thoroughly recommend booking through 6th Gear. This was one Birthday treat I won't forget in a hurry.

Dan Budden Venue:

Thanks Again

I would like to say thank you to everyone at 6th Gear. Yesterday, I loved every minute of it, from the demo lap which helps a lot to driving the Ariel Atom to the fast ride in the Focus! Everyone that I spoke to was very helpful and knowledgeable. I'm sure that I will be back next year to try one of the other cars!
Thanks again!

Brilliant Day

I just wanted to let you know what a brilliant day I had at Elvington on Sunday. I was so impressed with the level of organisation, not having too many people at the venue waiting for their slot made for an even more enjoyable experience.
But the cars, THE CARS! I hadn't realised how many top flight supercars would be there, and I drove the daddy, the Aventador!

I'll definitely be back again!

fantastic day at Elvington

Just a quick note to thank 6th gear for a fantastic day at Elvington Airfield, York on Sunday. I had chosen to drive the Aston Martin which was amazing but also drove the Ferrari 360. I had such fun, I can't wait to book another drive.

Not only were the cars amazing, but the drivers (demo and hot laps) and instructors were fab!

Best birthday present EVER!!!

Thank you.

Hi, Would just like to say a big thanks to Derek, my instructor for the Aston Martin DB9, who gave me a 96% pass (move over, Lewis, I want your job!!!) What a rush, I had an absolutely brilliant time and will definitely be doing it again. It was the best thing I have done in a long time. Got some fantastic photos and the photos from the professional on the day were excellent value for money and superb quality.

Thanks to all the 6th gear team for a great day.

I will definitely be recommending you to all my friends and family.

Many thanks once again

Hi, I'd like to thank you and the staff at Elvington for a great afternoon in the Ariel atom. I have one of these on order and though it would be nice to know what to expect when mine arrives - also made a nice fathers day gift for my dad, and I treated my brother too.

The organisation was outstanding, as was the time spent driving the cars. Can you say a special thanks to Mike for the time he took chatting to us and his advice.

Many thanks once again and will most certainly recommend you.

sorry if I was a little scary

Just wanted to say a big thank you for a completely awesome afternoon of driving on Saturday. The Lamborghini was amazing so I've decided not to get a mortgage for a house but instead a mortgage for a Lambo and a sleeping bag then just park it outside my mates houses he he.

Therefore if you ever needed a new member of the team I'd be willing to put myself forward....he he

Thanks again....sorry if I was a little scary

Nurburg watch out.

Just wanted to say thanks to Andy and the Team at Bruntingthorpe for a great days driving on Sunday. The whole set up was far better than others I've been to. The instructors were great and I really enjoyed being able to put my driving skills to the test safely without worrying about speed camera's traffic or the boys in blue.

It was all over too quickly though, I could easily get hooked.

Nurburg watch out. Hope to do it again soon.

Thanks again

BRILLIANT!

I have just discovered this testimonial feature on the site but i just wanted to say, i had a junior driving experience in may and it was absolutely amazing!!! I drove an Aston Martin DB9 and although on paper it doesnt sound that quick, it was, i tell you it was very quick! I was a bit nervous at first but it was worth every single penny!! If you are looking at a junior driving experience, dont hesitate, its worth it!

John Brady Venue: Blyton

My son, Pearson really enjoyed his Junior Ferrari experience on 14th August despite the wet weather. The only problem is that now he wants me to get one!!! I also enjoyed the passenger laps in the Aventador...look forward to driving it next time.

look forward to driving it next time

I haven’t stopped grinning

I would like you to give you some feed back after having the morning with you all at Elvington yesterday.
I was very impressed with your organisation and management of us (your customers).

It was a very slick and very, very enjoyable morning.

I haven't stopped grinning yet and probably won't for some time!

The speed and agility of those cars is mind blowing

Hi
Just a quick message to say me and my girlfriend Christina both had an amazing Lamborghini thrill at Elvington today.

The instructors were fantastic and very helpful with their expert tuition, always trying to get you driving faster each lap. Still all adrenaline fuelled up we both had a hot lap in the Aventador as well, which was just fantastic.

The speed and agility of those cars is mind blowing.

So just a big thanks again and we will be back soon!!

 

M Smith Venue: Elvington

I’m still wearing the silly grin on my face

Just a quick line to say thank you for last Saturday at Elvington.

The weather was typically British, the car (Aventador) was simply stunning to drive.

I was so absorbed in the driving, the instructor had to tell me to put the window wipers on!!

I sure I'm still wearing the silly grin on my face.

Once again thanks to everyone at 6th Gear Experience.
