This Formula F1000 GP driving experience is one of the fastest single seater experiences in the UK, and you can now enjoy 16 mind-blowing laps around our purpose built race track at Bovingdon Airfield. The Formula F1000 will go from 0.100mph in 4.75 seconds which is incredible. The experience will start off with drivers safety and techniques briefing, followed by passenger, reaction training and circuit demonstration laps in a track taxi car, where you will learn the basic racing lines. Then you will take the wheel of the Formula F1000. Sitting just centimetres off the ground you will feel the thunderous power as you shift through the gears on your 16 breathtaking laps of the track, your first four of which are under yellow flag conditions before you give it some for another 12 laps under 1:1 tuition from the instruction team. You will also receive a high-speed passenger ride in a performance car to put the icing on the cake to the experience!
