We had an amazing day at Silverstone yesterday, learning to drive a rally car! I think the Ford Escort-see picture, quite muddy!- might be a bit different to the Plymouth but it didn't have ABS brakes so we learnt to control over and understeering and rather enjoyed the power sliding!! Andy said"You can do a controlled corner or just slide"-silly question!!
Rachel has been driving the car and discovered that the fuel guage is faulty so ran out of fuel-slightly embarrassing!Now comes the time to learn about the mechanics

The car is ready and has been delivered. Sadly, as the roads are so icy, we can't practise our driving in it at the moment!
We had one go in it and it is enormous , we should have just enough space for all our stuffTwo girls on tour
