Richard Hill Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Hi All, I am considering building or purchasing a Westfield with the intention of doing some track days, but thought it would be good to try one out first, maybe by doing a Westfield Experience Day, particularly as my track experience is very limited. There seem to be a number of these commercially available. Does anyone have any experience of these and able to recommend one, or are there any other ways of approaching this? Cheers, Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 If you get yourself along to a trackday that has a few of us at.. there'll be plenty of offers of passenger laps as a first step? There's not much happening this time of year, although a few hardy souls are still at it. See the trackday section. 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFrancis Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I did a Westfield experience day before I bought mine, which was donuts and general sliding about in a huge car park at Donnington, the instructor is the same guy who is at the kit car show each year doing the runs for punters. I great day out, it didn't really give an experience of what it was like to drive the car, but it did answer a number of the questions I had about the car, like would I fit, should I have a windscreen, which shape looks best in real life and so on. My main learning of the day is that it is easy to donuts, but difficult to do them where planned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAFKARM Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 For the best Westfield experience, Go out to your garage in the middle of winter, peel some onions and set £20 notes on fire. 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget to skin your knuckles on a cheese grater to get the full experience... 😢😂 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 The Westfield Factory sold the drift cars to - Mtechlite They still use them to provide the drift experience at shows and events such as Stoneleigh and they organise their own drift experience days too.

Richard Hill Posted December 1, 2021 Author Share Posted December 1, 2021 Many thanks for your replies. I see Mtechlite offer a 12 lap session at various tracks, so maybe that and a visit to one of your track days might be the way to go.
