  • About

    Porsche continue to make some of the world's most iconic and exciting sports cars. With handling and acceleration that has to be experienced to be believed, it's your turn to find out what makes these cars legendary. You'll start off with a short briefing from your qualified instructor. What happens next depends on venue: at Prestwold Hall, Oxfordshire or Staffordshire circuits, you'll tear around for between six and seven miles in the 997 version of the 911. At Prodrive, Bruntingthorpe, Elvington or Long Marston you'll drive the awesome 996 Turbo for between four and five laps. So buckle up and enjoy the pinnacle of German engineering.

    • Choose between the Porsche 996 Turbo, the 997 or the latest Cayman
    • Take the wheel and feel the thrill as you tear around the track
    • Take home a certificate as a memento of your fabulous day

    I booked this experience as a treat for myself having lost the best part of 75lb's in weight. The whole day was exactly what I was looking for, chance to watch all of the other cars going around the track, quick and simple to book in and a great briefing. The instructor was great - really patient, encouraging and all the instructors seemed to have a real passion for making sure everyone had a great day. Would recommend to anyone in a second!

    The weather for the day was grey and the sky overcast with threatening clouds. Thankfully the rain held off. Familiarisation seems all too easy but in practice was too short; you need several laps to begin to learn the course. A practiced driver reminded us that 2 hands on the wheel was preferable to using one to hide behind - you think he's joking? Pedal to the metal is just the start of it - those cones arrive soooo quickly that it's pedal to the metal again with the brake.......and then it's all change and pedal to the metal with the other one. Fantastic understates it and you come away with a lot more respect for those F1 Johnnies and all of the other folk that race cars for fun and to provide enjoyment. Do it...........at least once!!

    Thoroughly Good Fun

    What an amazing day! Easy and quick to sign in, the demo drive and tutorial gave me a small taster of how fast I'd be actually going! The staff were enthusiastic, knowledgable and friendly. The car I drove was a Porsche 911, I got up to 130 miles per hour and the instructor was so informative of when I should put my foot down to get the most that I could out of the car. All in all a fantastic day and one I'm already planning on repeating as soon as possible!

    Amazing Day Out!

    Absolutely loved the Porsche Thrill that my family bought for me for my birthday. The instructor was really helpful but great at just letting me take charge. The only downside is that it went too quick and wasn't long enough!

    I had a fantastic couple of hours at Elvington. The organisers were spot on, everything ran like clockwork. We got to know the track prior to going out and when we did we could give the car some beans! Enjoyed the day. Would do this again or recommend it highly.

    Fantastic Day

    I had a good day. I had really wanted to drive a Porsche (As I want to buy one). The experience is really informal and there were hundreds of people there coming and going but the organisation is good and when its your turn to drive then you are made to feel like a person and not just another number. You can be there for a while to drive one car as It did so it is probably worth driving 2 or 3 to get a full experience

    Fantastic!

    The venue was very easy to find although more sineage at the main road entrance would be helpful! All the staff were very helpful towards me and the layout of the facilities good! The instructor was welcoming friendly and made me at ease straight away after telling him i had never driven a sports car before, everything was A1. I would recomend it to anyone.

    Apart from the thrill of driving a Porsche the whole experience was excellent. Booking in was quick, the briefing which entailed a showing of a DVD was clear and concise. You are then taken for 2 laps in a 'hot hatch' where the instructor explains the layout of the track. Then it was time for the Porsche! An instructor sits in the car with you, giving you a running commentary of what you should do. I was extremly impressed with this. All in all an unforgettable experience topped by storming past an Aston Martin on my final lap. The only downside....makes we want to own a Porsche!
