After weeks of waiting the VW Freedriving Tour day came around. I felt like a teenage boy who finally got his full drivers permit and was getting schooled on the art of driving from one of the Top Gear guys. Yes, I’m a girl who loves cars and follows Top Gear, so what? 😉

After signing in and getting my track pass all setup, I took a little time to just watch other people go through their tests first, so I can figure out the course. I wanted to make sure I wouldn’t be able to read one particular sign…

Here is a video of what I was watching, I’m not the best videographer, sorry!

After watching other people have all the fun, it was my turn. check out how I did in the Tiguan, love the noise it makes when I’m flat on the floor…

After a few runs and testing out all the different cars, I went back and tested the Jetta Diesel, it’s a pretty smooth car. Watch the video, the instructor tells me I’m doing a “nice job”, it’s ON TAPE!! He totally made my day for saying that, so thank you! 🙂

Even though I enjoyed driving all the cars, I was SUPER surprised to realize that I actually enjoyed the Golf Wagon the most. Who would’ve thunked it!

After I had my fun with the cars on the track, I went to checkout the newly launched 2012 Beetle inside the tents. That car is a beauty, can’t wait to test it out on the road.

All in all, I had an amazing day, filled with excitement and new experiences. To make it all even better I received an awesome goodie bag filled with VW goodies. Love the parking sign, I’m going to take it to work and put it on my parking spot!

Thanks again VW Canada, Kristi Pennett and Brand Momentum, it was a blast!
