About

Fed up of being stuck in the back of the car on long journeys, having to put up with mum or dad's music for hours on end? Well here's your chance to get in the driving seat for once and show the old folks how to really drive! This fantastic outdoor circuit is where a lot of top Formula 1 drivers first got into racing before being lured away by the big bucks. In fact it was here, aged just 11, that Lewis Hamilton was first discovered as a potential champion. Start by watching a video and receiving your safety briefing and then let your competitive streak loose with a 20 minute session on the 300 metre Club Circuit. You'll be behind the wheel of a petrol kart which reaches speeds of up to 20mph (and believe us, that will feel twice as fast in a kart). After a break to catch your breath, see how the professionals do it with a mind- blowing ten lap high-speed passenger ride on the 600 metre National Circuit in an 80mph twin seated Thunderkart. Go ahead and release your inner speed demon!
