About

Contrary to what some people seem to think, sports cars were not designed to sit on the owner's driveway to make the neighbours envious. They were designed to be driven. Fast. And this is your chance to get behind the wheels of an incredible selection of high-performance favourites. After a full safety briefing, and assisted by expert instructors, you'll drive a Ferrari 360, Porsche 911, Lotus Exige and Land Rover. You can also have a go at the 'single-seater shootout', try rally driving, tackle an auto test in a Caterham 7 and Peugeot 206 GTI or Ford Fiesta (unleash your inner boy racer!) and climb aboard the ride quads. All track driving takes place around Silverstone's world-famous Grand Prix circuit. You'll also get first-class hospitality all day in the BRDC Clubhouse (known as the ultra exclusive home of the best drivers in the world) including breakfast, lunch and a presentation pack. Trophies are awarded to the best drivers at the end. This is paradise for speed freaks.

Key Info

Availability: Selected weekdays approximately once a month throughout the year and we recommend booking several weeks in advance. The circuit closes between mid December and mid January.
Participant Guidelines: Min age 21. Height between 5'2'' and 6'2''. Max weight 16 stone. You must have held a manual driving licence for at least three years, which you MUST PRESENT ON THE DAY. Photocopies or verbal confirmation from the DVLA are not acceptable alternatives.
Weather: The experience might be cancelled or curtailed in extreme weather conditions (e.g. snow, ice or severe rain) which would make driving at speed dangerous. Please call the venue if in any doubt.
Duration: Breakfast and registration are at 8am and your experience concludes at 7pm. Driving activities last approximately six and a half hours, with a one hour each for breakfast and lunch.
Numbers On Day: There will be up to 70 people taking part, split into groups of 12. With the exception of the 4x4 driving, all driving is done either on a one-to-one basis with your instructor, or on your own.
Spectators: Limited viewing areas and lots of moving from track means this experience isn't suitable for spectators. Please note that pets are not allowed at the circuit.
Dress Code: Wear trousers, a long-sleeved shirt and slim, flat-soled shoes (the pedals in these cars can be close together). Please don't wear nylon clothing. A helmet will be provided.
