Category: Go Karting
In these days of touchy-feely fairness, it’s not often you get to unleash your competitive side. So try karting for an evening of fast and furiously competitive fun. This fantastic outdoor circuit is where a lot of top F1 drivers, including Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button, first got into racing before being lured away by the big bucks. You’ll be behind the wheel of a Pro 390cc Kart, which reaches speeds of up to 70mph (and believe us, that will feel twice as fast in a kart). The group are split into lightweights and heavyweights – done to ensure a level playing field, as driver weight makes a big difference in these little machines. Start off with a video and safety briefing, followed by qualifying laps to get used to the karts and the 1,200m outdoor international circuit. Then let your competitive streak loose in three quick-fire race heats. The leading points scorers go on to take part in the grand final, followed by a trophy presentation for the top three drivers.

The Ferrari F430 is one of the finest sports cars in the world, and driving it is an intense pleasure. It has a 4.3 litre V8 engine producing 483bhp, combined with astonishing road-holding and manoeuvrability. You’ll kick off with a briefing, then your instructor will drive you for three laps in a Mazda 3 MPS to familiarise you with the driving lines of the circuit. Next you’ll swap over to the driving seat for four laps in a Porsche Cayman. Then at last you’ll slip behind the wheel of the all-aluminium F430 for four mind-blowing laps. Be warned, this car is capable of 0-60 mph in under four seconds and has a top speed of almost 200mph; it’s not for the faint-hearted. You’ll finish driving five laps in a Formula Renault single-seater – sitting two inches off the ground, with lightning-quick steering and braking, this little dynamo of a car gives a totally different ride to the Ferrari.
