This experience lets you get straight on with it - mabye 10 minutes or so at the beginning signing on etc, and then everyone is taking their turns until the end of the session. Of course it would always be nice to have longer in the car, but with a handbrake session, then a course session, then a passenger ride it does feel like you have decent in car time. Staff are very down to earth, encouraging and helpful. They also try and get everyone talking to each other, with a bit of competition etc. This really does add to the experience. I'm tempted to do this exact experience again.
