...would you ever pay to drive a properly set up LET with serious power, just for the experience?

I know I would, I've driven a couple of what I'd call "fast" cars in the couple of years I've been driving but haven't ticked a LET off my list yet. It may seem like a silly question but I'm sure there are plenty of people that fantasise about being able to drive one?

Can understand that, I'd just love to see a "Corsa Turbo experience day" item number in Argos.

id give £40 for a coupla laps in an aerial atom. iv been in a few 'fast' cars then i had a shot at a dax rush with a hayabusa turbo in it capable of running 400hp....you do the maths in a car that weights 480kg NOTHING compares anymore.

I don't mean as in a random person, I meant like an experience day. Starting to realise how ridiculous my question was.

I'd never pay to go out in one but I would fancy a go in one to see if they are as fast as people say they are.

Why not? If it was cheap and easy to organise. Would be quite good as most track days with BMW blah blah you have to be over 21/25, if you could do it at 18 say why not?
