点评:A fantastic day, organised well to ensure you get a plenty of time on the main practice track even with a group of 10. The location is great, albeit feels a bit tricky to get to for someone who isn't used to narrow single track country roads. Facilities on site are basic but more than sufficient.
The day started with a brief introduction to rally driving techniques, we then had a couple of turns each on our own to get a feel for the car and the track before a round with an instructor driving and then as a passenger to offer further tips. All subsequent rounds we were sent out on our own again, though an instructor was always on hand to ride along as a passenger for further advice on request. This format worked really well as you get plenty of time to just work through the rips you've been given without someone always in your ear as a distraction. I wasn't keeping strict count, but each time I was on the track I think was a good 3-5 laps, and I must have had a good 8 or so rounds in the car, with the last 2 timed for some friendly competition to end the day
Just bombing round that track practicing sliding round the corners would be a fun day out on its own, but the additional laps round the actual rally course were fantastic too, once on a short informative loop with an instructor driving just to introduce you to it, once driving a different loop yourself with simplified pace notes provided (in a dual control car to ensure you don't go off the track if you make a mistake!), and one exhilarating round with an instructor going full pelt, where you realise that however fast you thought you went on your turn, was absolutely nothing!
All the staff were great, all extremely friendly and helpful and really made the day a great time. Would highly recommend for motorheads and rally curious folks alike!
翻译:精彩的一天!组织得非常周到,即使是10人的小组,也能确保在主练习赛道上获得充足的练习时间。场地位置绝佳,但对于不习惯狭窄单行乡村道路的人来说,前往那里可能有点棘手。场地设施虽然简朴,但也绰绰有余。
当天活动以简短的拉力赛驾驶技巧介绍开始,之后我们各自练习了几圈,熟悉车辆和赛道。接下来,由一位教练驾驶并作为乘客陪同,进行一圈练习,教练会提供更多指导。之后的每一圈,我们都是独自练习,但始终有一位教练在场,可以根据需要作为乘客提供进一步的指导。这种模式非常有效,因为你可以有充足的时间专注于练习,而不会有人在你耳边喋喋不休地指导你。我没仔细数,但每次上赛道大概跑了3-5圈,总共开了大概8圈左右,最后两圈还计时跑了两圈,算是给这一天画上了一个友好的句号。
光是在那条赛道上飞驰,练习漂移过弯就足够让人兴奋了,但额外的几圈拉力赛体验也棒极了。其中一圈是由教练驾驶的短途介绍圈,旨在帮助你熟悉赛道;另一圈是自己驾驶的,配备了简化的路书(为了防止你犯错冲出赛道,这辆车配备了双控制系统!);还有一圈是教练全速驾驶的刺激圈,让你意识到自己之前的速度其实根本微不足道!
所有工作人员都很棒,非常友好热情,让这一天过得非常愉快。强烈推荐给所有汽车爱好者和对拉力赛感兴趣的人!
