    Hi all,

    Just wondering if anyone out there knew anything about driving tests above the standard driving test, excluding the pass plus which is just an extension, with added motorway driving.

    The type of test I mean has greater emphasis on actually being a better driver, and Ive heard of a test where you need to drive on skid pans etc to become proficient in driving out of danger/skids.

    The reason I'm interested is because a few years ago a mate of mine said his Dad had a blue driving lisence (instead of pink) because he had taken this test. Also I would be intrested in taking part in a test like this over the summer, if only to gauge how good/bad at real driving I am.

    I invite any comments.

    Cheers

    I've looked into the rally experience, and I have done a fast car one with an Evo and a Scooby. I just curious about other options.
