Rally Driving Half Days

Rally Driving Half Days

Skid, slide, turn and laugh! These half day rally driving experiences are fun sessions which will put your driving skills through their paces.

Many people have watched in awe as rally car drivers steer their cars round the tightest of tracks at high speeds with the utmost of ease, but very few have ever thought about trying it. This is now actually a possibility; you too can get behind the wheel of these amazing driving machines and feel the exhilaration and adrenaline that is given from driving a fully prepared rally car.

These Half Day Rally Experiences give you the opportunity to take control of an extremely powerful rally car. You will be able to perform all of the amazing manoeuvres that the professionals do during their races, the power slides, the handbrake turns and wheel spins. It will be a fantastic experience that will stay with you for the rest of your life and one that will test your courage and commitment.

You will be taken through a full safety and technical orientation of the vehicle and shown how to handle it when you arrive on site. Once you have completed the orientation you will be behind the wheel, driving at speed while the car slides and skids across the dirt, mud and gravel.

A half day rally experience is the perfect introduction to this exhilarating sport and you'll leave with driving skills you never knew you were capable of!
