Drive Porsche GT3s and F360s at Jerez

Serious track day with a difference now available


Trakshare is offering the chance to try out its fleet of Porsche GT3 Cup cars and Ferrari 360 Challenge cars at the Jerez GP circuit, with two days exclusive track driving in December.

The track has been booked for exclusive use, and the number of cars will be kept to the minimum to ensure you receive the very best experience that this Grand Prix Test venue can offer.

GoldTrack in conjunction with TrakShare has been given the opportunity to have first refusal on this five-star experience. Only 20 places are available on a ratio of two drivers per car, with drivers getting to experience the full TrakShare Fleet over two days.

TrakShare's current toy cupboard

  • 5x Porsche 996 GT3 Cup Race Cars
  • 2x Porsche 996 Cup Race Cars
  • 2x Ferrari 360 Challenge F1 Race cars
  • 1x Porsche 993 RS Clubsport

The event will be based around the 5-star Monte Castillo Hotel and Spa Resort, only a quarter of a mile from the circuit (www.montecastillo.com) chosen not only for its convenience to the circuit but also for the relaxing facilities on offer after a long day on the track.

Instructors on the event include Calum Lockie, Richard Westbrook, Tom Ferrier, Nigel Rice, Jason Young, Chris Heeley to name a few.

Trakshare says the cars are full-on performance race cars run on full slicks with no rev limits, with professional racing drivers instructing on a quiet GP Track allowing you the opportunity to hone your track craft.

So if you're out of the ordinary and fancy this exclusive event in Southern Spain in December please call Chris Foy or David Graves at TrakShare on 01423 865600 or e-mail chris@autoclassica.co.uk. Remember to say you've been invited by Gold Track.

Would someone who's braver than me phone up and find out how much, just to confirm I can't afford it. Thanks

Errrr, no. I think they'd find that as acceptable as brightly coloured beads.

So which website organises expensive shopping and sauna trips for girlies with a free track day thrown in for blokes then?
