What did you get up to?
I arrived at 1pm for my 2pm Fantastic 4 experience. Weather was great and I was looking forward to driving the supercars with the roof down, sunglasses on, afro up and feeling the breeze. I selected Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin and the Ariel Atom. The staff were lovely and briefed all the drivers on the process and staying safe whilst on the racetrack. The gentleman who briefed us offered to reorder my selection so that I drove the harder cars at the end which was a massive help. Once we were led to the tracks, all the cars were lined up and I could feel the excitement in the waiting area while watching the other cars whiz past. I was called up for my first car, the Ferrari. The instructor was very helpful, explained the controls, the track and I was off. I went wild (but not too wild), it was absolutely thrilling and race-like with few moments of overtaking other drivers on the track, talk of scary! I then went on to the Lamborghini (very pretty car), Aston Martin and by the time I got to the Ariel Atom, I can say I had mastered the track. As the Ariel Atom was manual and trickier to control, I am glad I had taken the staff tip to drive it last, it was super enjoyable and being able to race in it was the absolute thrill I came for! I would definitely recommend this experience for all petrol heads out there and you get a free high-speed passenger ride, so you get to see how the pros do it. What more could you ask for?
What did you enjoy the most?
My favourite car was the Ariel Atom as it was the most challenging.
Top TipIf you choose the Ariel Atom, drive it last as it feels better when you have got the hang of the track since it’s a bit tricky to control.
