Individual Driving Experience
Driving enthusiasts shouldn't settle for any less in their special experience than driving a REAL race car - and these Ford Formula 1 style race cars are exactly that! Take part in the unforgettable thrill of driving an F1-style, open-wheel car as you are strapped into the open cockpit by a six-point racing harness with the quick release steering wheel in front of you. The gear stick on your right will be connected to a close-ratio, four speed, purpose-built racing gearbox that is ultra-responsive as you're seated only a couple of inches off the ground!
Feel every bump and vibration as your ultra-responsive race car reacts to the most minuscule adjustments made - truly the most fun racing experience available on four wheels!

What is the schedule on the day
Your experience starts at 8:00am with your racing suit fitting and a safety briefing about high-speed driving. Next you split into small groups to drive two laps of the track where you learn all about the circuit's braking and corner apex points.
Then you are strapped into your very own race car! Driving solo, you can now put all the theory into practice on the track. You are in control, so you can progress at your own pace and comfort level.
Points are awarded for consistency and accuracy in car control. The driver with the most consistent times receives the "Top Gun" award for the day!
