Plan your visit

Get behind the wheel — rally Escort or supercar

The rally experience hands you a classic Mk2 Escort RS2000 with a briefing, driving time on the circuit and a certificate at the end, typically running around three hours in total. There is a minimum age of 17 and you need a full driving licence, so it is aimed at adults and older teens, not young kids. Supercar days let you drive premium machines including Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, McLaren and Aston Martin, feeling the acceleration out of the slower corners and the speed along the straights. Both are do-it experiences — you are the driver, with instruction, rather than a passenger or a spectator.
