    Try searching the internet or on the freebies site for
    "World Series by Renault"
    as they give free tickets to go to watch car racing and loads of other stuff - see below:-

    "The free festival of motorsport, which combines on-track thrills with off-track entertainment for the whole family, has been brought forward to 7th/8th June. But the good news doesn’t stop there. In 2007, the UK round of World Series by Renault attracted a record 135,000 spectators making it the second largest race meeting in the UK behind the British Grand Prix and the biggest of the seven international World Series race meetings. This year, the motorsport extravaganza will be held at the home of British motorsport, Silverstone Grand Prix circuit!" .

    (Could be a great free day out or you could pay travel costs for them - may be expensive -Depending on where you live)

    I feel sure that I spotted a driving experience on the internet (over at Rockingham Raceway I think). The experience involves driving lots of fast cars around a track and costs about £120 - you can drive a Lotus Elite, Ferrari, Lamborghini, DB7 and other flash cars.

    Or you could get tickets for a hill climb such as Shelsley Walsh.
