Get yourself to Silverstone, Trax in July, http://www.silverstone.co.uk/events/2015-trax/tickets
You can book some track space if there are any spaces left. Great fun for a teaser. They allow any road worthy vehicle on track.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Many years ago when Land Rover gave out lots of free Experience vouchers those that purchased S/C s and TDv8's were also sometimes offered a day on the Gaydon High Speed track with an instructor as they felt owners of the 4.2ltr S/C's and Tdv8's were more likely to drive very fast in their cars than they were likely to take them off road. Sadly it High Speed Driving days were not that well received and people preferred to go and get muddy instead! Unless you have an SVR, TDv8 or S/C then you might not be taken very seriously at the track...............

I'm not sure if they are still on youTube but the Pistonheads guys made a video of taking their FFRR S/C and an RRS S/C around the Nubergring 4-5 years ago - they coped very well but scared the living daylights out of the Porsche 911 and BMW M 3 owners who they were able to keep up with........................ 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Instead of a track day, take it out and get it muddy at a pay-and-play site. You won't fit in any more or less than you will on a race track but at least it'll be doing what it does well. And instead of people laughing at you they'll end up being impressed... Thumbs Up 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed
