Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Do I need a driving license?

A. With the exception of the Junior Drive Experiences, all participants must hold a full, valid driving license with no serious convictions. You must also be able to drive a manual transmission. If you do not have a licence a voucher can still be purchased and you can be driven around any of our circuits by a qualified professional Instructors/Race Driver. 

 

Q. How long will I be at the venue for?

A. Typically we ask each customer to allow an hour and fiften minutes at the venue for a drive in one Supercar and a further 30-45 minutes per extra Supercar chosen to drive.

In the confirmation pack sent out to each driver before an event, it explains how we do require each customer to arrive a minimum of 30 minutes before their drive to allow for registration and safety briefing. It is very important that you arrive at your allotted time promptly as we are briefing groups every 30 minutes.

 

Q. What happens on the day?

A. When you get to the venue follow the signage to the car park and signage to the Registration centre. On arrival at our Registration area we will welcome you and ask to see your driving license.

After registration you will introduce you to our safety and welcoming Instructor for a briefing. On the day if you require a a sighting lap the cost is £10 for two Laps and will typically be in a saloon car. The Briefing Instructor will arrange this for you.
