Both great fun and superb.
I have never driven a car on a track day but I have done a few track days on various bikes, including a '50s Moto Guzzi Falcone at a classic track day.
One of the greatest buzzes that I had was on my wife's 250 cc Yamaha commuter bike. I was able to keep on the tail of a Ducati that had 4 times the engine and power and continually pass him on the outside before he blasted by me on the main straight. I will admit it said more about his lack of skill than my capability but none the less it does show that you can have heaps of fun going quickly with a slow machine than going slowly with a fast machine.
As an aside I did hear that the Ducati rider went and traded it in on a HarleyDavidson the following week. The HD was probably more his style 😳
