Race Car Driving

Race Car Driving Experiences

At ExtremeDays, our Racing Car Experience isn’t just an experience - it’s a full-throttle, pedal-to-the-metal dive into the world of motorsport. Forget the cushy test drives. This is the real deal: multiple laps around a circuit in a race car engineered for speed, precision, and total chaos.

We’ll start with a safety briefing, of course - because driving at insane speeds around tight corners requires a bit more than just a helmet and a prayer. Our expert instructors will explain the basics of track etiquette, safety, and how to take corners like a pro - all without making you feel like you’re in a driving school. Next up, it's sighting laps. This is where you get the lay of the land, watching the track’s twists and turns from the passenger seat as your instructor shows you how it’s done. You might even get a high-speed lap where you get to see what these beasts can really do. Spoiler alert: it’s not for the faint-hearted. Then, it’s your turn. You’ll take the wheel for several laps, with your instructor guiding you, pushing you, and helping you get that racing instinct firing. As you dial up your confidence, you’ll start to feel the raw power of the car under your hands, the turbocharged suspension working overtime, and the steering that lets you carve through the corners with surgical precision.

By the time you’re finished, you’ll know what it feels like to drive a racing car, and trust us - it’s nothing short of epic.

Is Race Car Driving the Experience for me?

Thinking about taking the plunge into one of our exhilarating race car driving experiences but still on the fence? If you’ve got a need for speed, a bit of nerve, and don’t mind a challenge, then this could be your new obsession. You don’t need to be a racing expert, but it certainly won't hurt!

Not quite sure if racing is your thing? No worries! If you’re after something a little different, why not try one of our Monster Truck Driving or Drifting Experiences? They’re big, loud, and full of power. But if you’re all about hitting the track, feeling the G-forces, and blasting around corners in a beast of a car, then racing is calling your name.

When did Car Racing first begin?

Car Racing, as we know it, was born on a revolutionary day in 1894, when the first official automobile race took place in France. The Paris-Rouen race was less about speed and more about reliability, as the cars were little more than horseless carriages with a bit of engine grunt. It wasn't until 1906, with the launch of the French Grand Prix at Le Mans, that racing truly evolved into the high-speed, tire-screeching spectacle we now adore. From that moment, motorsport kicked off in earnest, and men started pushing their machines - and themselves - to the limits, all in the name of speed.

Fast forward to today, and the world of car racing has exploded into a multi-billion-dollar industry, with everything from Formula 1 to touring car championships, endurance racing, and everything in between. It all started with a few brave men and a couple of steam-powered contraptions, and now we’ve got hypercars screaming around tracks at speeds that would make your hair stand on end. Racing’s come a long way, and it’s not slowing down anytime soon.
