Drive a single seater race car at incredible speeds, sitting just inches above the track of a UK race circuit. A fantastic gift for those who want to really get to grips with these powerful cars.
Check your mirrors, raise the revs and get ready to go, go, go! It’s time for the drive of your life as you power away from the starting grid in single seat Formula 1 style car at one of a number of top UK racing circuits, including Goodwood, Donington and Silverstone. You’ve seen the top drivers, cars and tracks on the TV (or even up close from the stands) but this is your chance to find out what it really feels like, from the smell of the cars and the rubber, to the adrenaline rush of flying down the back straight as you strive to beat your best lap time.
This racing experience is your chance to try out elite motorsport for yourself. You’ll be welcomed at your chosen track with a comprehensive driver briefing and introduction to single seat driving, including safety, braking areas, race lines and race driving techniques. Depending on the venue you may also have a couple of instructor driven laps in a high performance saloon car to demonstrate high speed driving and help you learn the track.
Finally it’s time for your flying laps. You’ll need to accelerate away from the start and maintain your speed, steering and braking confidently through the bends and hitting top speed down the finishing straight. Can you beat your best lap time and get pole position? It’s down to you!

"Days of Thunder" An awesome day with skilled staff to maximise your opportunities on the track. A gift you'll never forget. We immortalised my day in a home video of my laps set to the track of an epic race film, Days of Thunder! I also brought an amazing photo of me whizzing round the track and felt the part from the moment i got into the jump suit and put the helmet on!

"My husband loved it!" My husband loves cars, he's always going on about Formula 1 and how he'd like to drive one of their cars so for his 50th birthday I decided to get him this experience as a treat. Well if I thought he talked about that stuff enough before its nowhere near as much as he does now HE LOVED IT! He says its the best present hes ever got and enjoyed every minute of it. If you have a son or anyone in your life who is as mad about cars as my husband then they'll love this - I'd recommend it to anyone!

My partner only holds an Australian license. Would you accept this instead of a UK licesnse?
Provided your partner can legally drive a manual car and has held his licence for a minimum of 12 months then it would be fine for him to do this experience.
