BLIND drivers are being given an opportunity to drive cars at full speed around a track in a charity event.
The fundraisers will drive dual-control cars at the Nissan test track, in Sunderland.
British School of Motoring instructors will accompany the drivers and blindfolded passengers who want to go along for the ride.
There will also be the opportunity for participants to ride in a rally car, as well as a luxury weekend away for the person raising the most money for Guide Dogs for the Blind.
Each participant is encouraged to raise at least £50 for the charity.
There will also be a competition to guess how many balloons are in a car, with driving simulator lessons to be won.
The event will take place on Sunday, June 11.
To take part, call Claire Douglas on 0799 054 0176
