It's a good offer if you were planning to go to Brands, Donington and Oulton. If I was I'd take it up!

I've been in the Barwell, Honda and VX Racing pits and it is quite nice (and a bit weird) to see everything from a teams point of view, oh and if you have the chance to sit in the car......allow up to 20 minutes just to get through the bloody roll cage! (maybe it's just the astras that are very tight though)

I've been in a number of garages before recently i had the pleasure of being in a team garage while the great Marc Gounon was racing, and the pit stops were spectacular. Most other pit lane experiances though have been relatively uninspiring I have to say, I was a guest of one of the teams last year and I have to say that the expreiance was hardly a life changing one. Personally I'd save the money especially since some teams, dare I even say it, better teams let you in for free if you talk nicely!
