Ever wondered what it feels like to go full-throttle sideways in a drift car, but don’t have a licence? The Drifting Passenger Lap Experience at Seighford Driving Centre in Staffordshire is just the ticket. Drifting might look effortless, but it’s an art form—and here you’ll get to experience it from the passenger seat with six adrenaline-fuelled laps. Strap into a Lexus IS200, Lexus IS250, or Nissan 200SX and prepare for the smell of burning rubber and serious sideways action. You’ll ride close behind a lead car as your professional driver pushes the limits, drifting within inches of the rear bumper ahead without ever making contact. It’s fast, fierce, and full of thrills—so hold on tight for the ultimate drift ride!
