Truck Driving Experience Blast (Anytime)

This Experience is a unique opportunity to get behind the wheel and experience a drive of a HGV Lorry. In this experience you will be guided by a fully qualified HGV instructor as you attempt to manoeuvre the truck around a specialist course.

This experience provides 15-20 minutes behind the wheel of the lorry. In the experience, you will be given an in depth briefing in the cab by your instructor as he helps you get to grips with the oversized wheel and the 12 speed gearbox. You will then be given expert tuition as you attempt to coax the truck around various slaloms, as each course at the various venues on offer boasts lots of tight and technical sections, allowing you to massively improve your spatial awareness. You will also be able to have a couple of attempts at reverse manoeuvres in a bid to try and perfect your parking. Once you have completed your driving, you will then receive a certificate of completion, with the option to purchase photographs of your Truck Driving Experience as you reflect on a truly memorable day.

                Collision Damage Waiver for 1 Drive

                One of our most Popular products available for obvious reasons!! Buying this waiver gives you full peace of mind that you can relax and fully enjoy your drive knowing you won’t be picking up the bill if anything goes wrong..

                Supercars are super amazing but can be super expensive to fix should anything get damaged. This collision damage waiver transfers the liability of the £5000 excess from the customer driving to ourselves so should anything go wrong on the day there will be no unpleasant expensive surprises.

                There are also bonus features that can record the following; GPS showing position on track F1 style, G-force showing the power of the acceleration, and the all-important bragging rights of the speedometer and the footage is saved to an SD Card for your convenience.

                No words can describe how fantastic it is to look back on driving your first Ferrari or to see your Dad’s face when he finally gets to drive the car of his dreams.. worth every penny…

They will show you the chicanes, the acceleration zones, the braking points, where and how to take the corners and everything else you will need to be familiar with on the circuit..  

                The more confident you are with the circuit, the more confident you will be handling your supercar and the better your drive will be – take advantage and book your demo laps in now for this reduced price as they are more expensive on the day..
