I have a friend who did exactly that and popped the drive shafts on a brand new Fiesta...

 

Ever seen the Rent-a-car crash up Derby (slightly American but funny)

Right, that misses out the slightly important setup for it...

 

Which I can only find in foreign

I've always fancied doing a track day in a daily rental,

 

I'm sure if it went very wrong a friendly recovery company could take the enterprise rented 1.2 corsa & leave it in a lay by nr the public road

This was quite common in germany for the nordschleife

Until they stated tracking the cars..

Many a wrote off rental there

Many ( As mentioned) Yammies have been found to break down 3 miles from a track ( Day).

Seems a lot cannot handle a R1 very well!!

To be fair I rode a R6  (R1 = 1000cc R6 =600 cc) and the "6" is mental.

Not yet ridden a R1 with any room to use its potential.

My top speed on a bike is now *67 ish.  So within the speed limit!!

i'd bring my 2 Sinclair C5's along, but we would need to book the track for 5 days - just to get from the car park to the start line .

Looool
