Made famous as the star of the blockbuster film Need for Speed, this legendary muscle car gives you the chance to experience the power and excitement of a true performance machine. Your experience begins with a short driver briefing, where you will receive guidance from a professional instructor on making the most of your time behind the wheel. Then it’s time to fire up the 5.0-litre V8 engine and feel the adrenaline as you take control of the Shelby GT on track. Enjoy 3 thrilling miles of driving at one of several UK venues, experiencing the roar, acceleration and handling of this famous movie car in a safe and controlled environment.
