Cool present. Always wanted a drive in one... Are they still Honda powered like they used to be?

[fzr phil]

erm, not sure (sorry). the one i drove was supercharged, other one standard

I know that the first ones were NA and then they released a supercharged one but both with Honda engines (K20 IIRC) Never the less, i am jealous ?

well, get one on your xmas list. But, be prepared as a generous a gift it is there are always extra's: insurance...sighting lap... extra laps...not to mention the pics and vids. easy £100 odd more.
also, they want to keep you alive so basically get you to go round in 5th/6th and are encouraged to slow down a bit for bends.
no regrets though, it was

...a good few years wait since the initial gift voucher
