Welcome to the Xperiences guide to extreme driving and track days, part #1. This series of articles will delve into some of the ultimate gifts available for any car fanatic, speed demon or thrill chaser and give you a brief glimpse of the best that is available on the market today. Whether it's racing a F1 car, driving a classic Aston Martin or Ferrari, testing your rally skills, taming a monster truck, racing a quad around a woodland track or a full out assault in extreme dodgems or go-karts, we aim to give you the lowdown on them all.
Supercar Hire. Supercar driving is rapidly becoming one of the most popular and fastest selling experiences available today with more and more people seeking that speed thrill that only a supercar can deliver. Here, they remove the shackles of having an instructor and lap limit by letting you show off to the world in the supercar of your dreams, and on the public road! You will be the talk of the town in any of the stunning sports cars available to hire as you buckle up and get behind the wheel for as long as you like, you are in boss.
Track Days. Aston Martin represents pure power and finesse. Racing School venues around the country offer you a variety of performance cars; beautifully crafted modern classics with performance to stir the soul. It looks and sounds fantastic, with V8 power that demands long straights and high-speed corners. Or maybe you prefer to go to Leicestershire or Warwickshire and try the DB9; an uncompromising 6 litre, 186mph speed machine, with V12 power and handling to satisfy any driving enthusiast. These cars have it all - pace, incredible handling and stunning design.
Stock Car Racing. Exhilarating, fast paced, fun and let's face it, completely crazy! Stock Car Racing offers you the one off chance to get a specialized and partially demolished car, put your foot down and enjoy the pure adrenaline as you crash, speed and get cheered on all the way! These are excellent gifts for those looking for something a little different and a lot of entertainment.
Quad Biking. Lets you take off for a taste of what quad biking is really about, venturing across woodland tracks, through water and up and down slopes, with your instructors keeping a close eye on you all the way. You will get mud spattered, but can hand in those overalls at the end. The bikes are usually Honda 250ESs - a utility machine with five forward gears operated by electric thumb shift - or Sportrax 90s - smaller, sports-tuned quads.
Off Road Driving. Wheels churning and axles grinding, learn the skills of observation, planning and manoeuvring as you tackle side slopes, steep inclines and rutted tracks of amazingly challenging terrain. These off road courses are both fun and serious skills acquisition all rolled into one. Your instructor will soon have you driving off-road like an expert, and you'll certainly regard 4WD vehicles with new respect in future.
Monster Trucks. Ever imagined you were actually at the steering wheel of your toy truck as you pushed it around a make-believe course on your lounge floor as a kid? Well now you really can take to the wheel! These experiences give you the opportunity to drive a multitude of different big toys. Steering thiese massive trucks on a mission of destruction is a pure adrenaline rush.
Single Seater Racing. Driving an F1-style single-seater racing car is unlike anything else. You're strapped into the open cockpit with your legs stretched out into the nose of the car, the steering wheel in front of you and the gearstick between your legs. You're only a couple of inches off the ground and you'll know it; you can feel every bump and vibration and you'll have to fight not to over steer, as your super-responsive car reacts to every tiny adjustment you make. This is driving at its limits, as done by the pros; just you and the car.
