Every guy remembers sitting as young boy, making ‘vroom vroom’ noises as he played with his toy cars and fantasised about growing up and driving the real thing. Now he can, with the Big Toys Day from Red Letter Days, the UK’s leading experience company.
Take a trip down nostalgia lane, back to the glory days of Tonka Trucks and Mean Machines and enter into a real life toy car showdown! Jump aboard a mammoth juggernaut 430HP articulated lorry, go ‘nee-nor nee-nor’ in a blazing red fire engine, or shout ‘all aboard’ on one of two vintage double decker buses.
With professionals on hand you’ll soon master the controls of these goliath machines and begin a formidable drive. Jump into the driver seat and receive a briefing before finding out what these workhorses can really do. Your driving skills will be put to the test on a custom built rally course where you can take up the challenge of speedy slaloms and create clouds of dust by zooming around roundabouts. Finish up by navigating your way through a course of ambitious and tricky off-road obstacles – if you can conquer these tasks you’ll truly be the ‘King of the road.’
The Big Toys experience is the perfect excuse to release those work day frustrations and fulfil youthful ambitions. Let it never be said that boys get over their fascination for big toys!
