About

Start off with five demo laps in a Mini Cooper S followed by a safety briefing. Then get behind the wheel yourself for six miles driving the Porsche 911 Turbo and six miles driving the Ferrari 360, two of the most striking and well known supercars in the world. Next you'll go solo on the circuit with ten laps in a single seater Formula Ford. After a break to catch your breath, drive for another seven un-paced laps in the single seater, then upgrade to a stunning Formula 3 single seater for ten laps. Then it's on to the main event - blow your mind with ten laps in either the 1996 Italian Forti-Corse FG03, as driven by Luca Badoer, or the 1994 Arrows FA14, as driven by Aguri Suzuki. A few laps in one of these fantastic 600bhp machines will redefine your notion of speed and road handling, as well as giving you a huge adrenaline rush! Lunch, memorabilia and an F1 certificate are included, plus dinner, overnight accommodation and breakfast for you and a guest at a recommended local hotel.
