  • About

    Start off with a short briefing from a qualified instructor who will talk you through track driving techniques. Next your instructor will drive you round the circuit in a sports saloon for five minutes of familiarisation laps to demonstrate the racing lines. Then you'll take the driving seat of the fantastic 183mph, 400 bhp, 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds Ferrari 360. You'll just about have time to get your breath back before pushing your driving skills to the limit in a rally prepared Ford Focus. With an instructor by your side, try handbrake turns and power slides as you put this car through its paces on a purpose built rally course. Finish with question and answer session and a certificate presentation.

    • Two experiences in one!
    • Demo laps in a sports saloon
    • Drive six miles in the glorious Ferrari 360
    • Enjoy 15 minutes testing your driving skills in a rally prepared Ford Focus
    • Take home a certificate as a momento of your day

    A very well organised event. Staff & Instructors very pleasant & really helpful. The Ferrari driving is an absolutely brilliant experience. The Rally Driving is a completely different challenge and no less enjoyable. I would recommend the driving experiences at Rockingham to anyone.

    Fantastic

    Totally fulfilled my expections & more! What a wonderful day my family & I ended up having even though it was meant to be for me! The ferrari experience was a thrill in itself! Shame others on track slowed me down but still fantastic!!! It was all captured on DVD which am so glad, as it went so fast! It was brillant re living it all again seeing my reactions aswell as my driving, will recommend! Money well spent. Rallying was harder than expected take my hat off to those instructors it takes alot of skill but loved every minute of it left me wanting to do more & more! Would have paid for another session however my 9 & 6 year old kids decided to opt for a thrill seeking speed session with an experience driver! What fun they had! Big smiles all round, so we all will be back very soon.

    A Fantastic Day Had By All!

    The staff were friendly and welcoming and the organisation to get everyone through the process of driving safely and having fun was excellent. My family enjoyed the spectating options and also had a memorable day. I left with a big smile on my face!

    Awesome Driving Comparison

    The difference between the two experiences (Ferrari and Rally) was an amazing feeling, the sheer power and speed against the technical agility. What a great day out ... I had a massive big smile on driving into the car park at Rockingham and it never left me the whole day.

    Fantastic memorable day
