No words. Absolutely ecstatic about the experience. the briefing is around 20 to 30 mins. the rest of the time you get to drive around. Always always follow your instructor once the safety lap is done (to get to know the track) otherwise he will bring you into pit lane and make you stop for a while. The experience was worth every single penny

Full description

Before getting into the driver’s seat you’ll be suited up in full race gear and helmet, and receive a technical briefing from your racing coach. Next, you’ll take familiarization laps around the circuit in a Renault vehicle. During these slow laps, your coach will explain the racing line and how to approach each corner.

At this point in your activity you should be ready for the real action. You’ll head back to the pits, where you’ll be further briefed on your car before being tightly strapped in.

Prepare to feel every bump, ripple and sensation of the drive. You can be sure that you've never been this connected to a driving machine!

Get a grasp of the inner workings of this racing car and experience truly sensational performance first-hand. For 15 minutes, you’ll be in charge of the paddle shifters, which help shift the gearbox up and down. Two on-board video cameras will capture your drive and allow you to re-live the action later on.
