| Racing Car Driving |
£139.00 |
 |
| The programme typically involves a welcome on arrival, followed by a briefing. Then it’s time to take to the wheel for laps in a performance saloon, where your instructor will demonstrate circuit driving techniques such as taking the correct line on a corner. Next you take the wheel yourself to practise what you have been taught. Then the real action begins: you take a single seater racing car such as a Formula First, Formula Renault or Formula Ford around the racing circuit. With potential acceleration of 0-60 in less than 6 seconds, these cars are perfectly placed to introduce you to the thrills of racing. |

| Rally Thrill Experience |
£158.00 |
 |
| You'll start your day with an introductory briefing from your instructor and then it's time to get behind the wheel for some practice sessions - you'll learn techniques such as hand brake turns and controlled opposite lock slides. Many of our courses have loose surface stages - which means much more sliding, and much more fun! What's more, we use a wide selection of rally schools where most of the centres have the latest equipment (such as headphones in your helmet, so you can clearly hear what's going on). |
|
| Skid Control Course |
£88.00 |
 |
| After a welcome you will be given an introduction to the various types of skid situations by your instructor. You will learn how to anticipate skid conditions and more importantly, how to get out of them. After some demonstrations from your instructor you and the other members of your group will take it in turns recovering and avoiding skids. You will usually be driving a specially modified car, which can replicate different forms of skids by electronically shifting the weight distribution of the car. It's great fun as well as a valuable lesson for all drivers. |
|
| Slicks and Spokes |
£339.00 |
 |
| The programme starts with a training session in an Alfa Romeo, Ford or similar suitable saloon. Your instructor will drive you around the circuit explaining the racing line, braking and gear changing points. After a couple of laps you'll change places and you will have the chance to put into practice the points you have just learned, with your instructor by your side. Next Goodwood's sweeping circuit is open to you as you take the wheel of a Formula Ford 2000 single seater racing car. This is a full 2 litre "winged" racer, with slick tyres and Hewland gear box. After more than 10 miles impersonating Jenson Button you'll need a breather! A change of pace follows as you are given two of the following cars to master. You could be behind the wheel of a svelte E Type Jaguar, a rumbling replica AC Cobra, a majestic Aston Martin, Chevrolet Corvette, or a scintillating Porsche 911 RS. You will drive three laps in each car. Again an instructor will accompany you to help you savour these wonderful old cars, which all have their own idiosyncrasies, not to mention lots of horse power! All cars are subject to availability. |
