Lotus Elise V Aston Martin driving experience. 

The design philosophy of Lotus when building the Elise was 'Performance through light weight'. This was a philosophy which was first adopted by Colin Chapman, the founder of Lotus.

A result of this is a 0-60mph time of just over 5.5 seconds from a 1.8 litre engine.

Your Lotus Elise V Aston Martin experience starts with a safety and techniques briefing from an experienced racing driver.

You will learn about the racing line and be taught how to get the best out of your time and the cars.

Our instructor will drive you around the track in a saloon car for 2 familiarisation laps to show you the racing line and point out braking points.

You will then have your first 4/5 lap driving session in the very agile Lotus Elise.

After a small break you will get back in the driving seat for a further 4/5 laps, this time in the ultra-cool Aston Martin DB9/ V8 Vantage.

Once you recover from the adrenalin rush you will be presented with a certificate.

Please allow aprox. 2 hours for your experience.

(4 laps driving each car at Elvington and Blyton Park, 5 laps at Teesside)
