Lotus Exige Driving at Silverstone by from Red Letter Days

Drive this fantastic British car around the world-famous Silverstone Circuit. The Exige is a hardcore, mid-engined sports car with astounding handling and power. Reaching 0 - 60 mph in under five seconds, it's truly one of the quickest and safest cars on the road today, and is an absolute thrill to drive. Learn about track driving techniques during a safety briefing. Once the car controls have been explained, you'll head out onto the Silverstone track for four laps. Have a break before going back out there for a further five laps in the Exige. As a finale, you'll be shown what these cars are really capable of during a high-speed lap by a professional instructor. Conclude with a debrief, driver assessment and certificate presentation.
