Got a free entry to this show at Brands Hatch 22/23 rd November. Looks like a good event. Ginetta will be there with G50 / G20 and if u have your MSA licence you can get on track to try them out...
has anyone been to this event before?

I got a free ticket too. Maybe i will take my licence along. Quite fancy a go in the G50, it would be interesting to compare its performance against my G33.

I am going on the Sunday and have lined up a drive in the G50 for Sunday afternoon (through contacts at PH)... anyone know the format of the day and how you get to jump in and out of cars, or is it just simply to queue?

Have just found out that the cost of a 20minute test in the G20 is £200, or £250 for a go in the G50!

I might be hiring a supercharged Mercedes SL 55 AMG next week for 3 days with a 600 mile allowance for 395 quid.

There again I could have a go in a G50 for 20 minutes scratchchin

Those prices really are bizarre !!

imho I think its a lot if you just want to play around and have honestly got no intention of taking it further - but if you're serious about racing a G50 its pretty reasonable bearing in mind you'll be fully supported - I am sure they'll give you a refund if you buy/hire one!!

but they also do test days where you pay in the region of 300.00 to test a G50 for half a day or so!!
