Rally driving occupies a unique place in the motorsport world. It's fast, furious and often seems barely in control. Well, find out for yourself behind the wheel of a rally-prepared Group N two-litre Sierra. Discover the secrets of skid oversteer and understeer on Knockhill's purpose-built off-track rally stage - one of the venues of the RSAC International Scottish Rally. Your experience starts with a briefing on technique and safety, then you'll get one-to-one tuition on how to control the rally car. You'll be marked on your driving skills on a final stage assessment, before a white knuckle high-speed demo run by your instructor as a finale. There's a trophy for the best driver of the day and everyone receives a certificate.

Once you've driven a Ferrari, no other car comes close. Experience the phenomenal acceleration, braking and handling of Maranello's breathtaking beauties. You'll kick off with a briefing and then your instructor will drive you on some training laps in a hot hatch so that you can learn the racing lines and see circuit driving techniques in action. What you do next depends on the venue: At Donington Park or Three Sisters Circuit you drive seven miles in a Ferrari 360 followed by three miles in a hot hatch and finish with ten miles in a single-seater racing car (23 miles in total). At Prestwold Hall you drive four laps each in a Ferrari 550 and F360 Spider (16.2 miles). At Thruxton you drive three laps in a Porsche Cayman, four laps in a Ferrari 355 plus five laps in a single-seater (28.8 miles). And at Rockingham you'll drive an F360 for six miles on track and then a single-seater for a further 20 minutes. Finish with a high-speed passenger ride at some venues.
With race commentators and trophies to be won, this is real racing in fantastic 1300cc saloon stock cars. After a briefing on safety and driving techniques, you'll drive for four practice laps and two racing heats of eight laps each. Based on the points scored in the heats, each driver will then be streamed into a championship final for ten electrifying laps against drivers of a similar ability. The winners of the four finals line up for eight laps in the Showdown Shootout race to find the ultimate champion. Conclude with a trophy presentation for the best drivers of the day. The adrenaline is pumped up throughout with commentary over the PA system, race marshals, fans and a great atmosphere.
Subaru's Impreza is one of the best-loved rally cars in the sport: a turbo-charged 4WD marvel that's just made for kicking up gravel as you slide into a bend (and it looks pretty cool, too). With 280bhp under the bonnet, the Prodrive 'Group N' Subaru Impreza is perfect for learning the skills of rally driving, leaving the M25 a distant memory. After a full safety briefing you'll learn all about skid control, power slides and handbrake turns on a purpose-built rally stage. During two demo laps, you'll familiarise yourself with the loose-surface rally stage and the Impreza. Then you'll slide over into the driver's seat for three hair-raising driving sessions. The experience ends with lunch and a certificate presentation.
Competitive streaks at the ready. Karting isn't just for kids - it's how many Grand Prix champions (including current F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton) start out before moving on to fame and fortune. Whatever your racing ambitions, this experience is loads of fun. Novices and experts will all enjoy this fast and furious race event, where you'll compete in teams of five to drive the greatest number of continuous laps in the allotted time. Pit stops and driver changes keep everyone involved and add to the drama (good teamwork goes a long way to helping you win this event). Will you be able to work together as a team? Your experience starts with a safety briefing and then practice laps to make sure everyone is familiar with the karts and the circuit, then the endurance race begins. The winning team can take home prizes and a smug glow at the end of the session.
