Everyone hates it, but it's pretty hard to avoid. The morning and evening rush hours are a big pain and are definitely something everyone would rather do without. Ever sat there behind the wheel fantasising about zipping up along the inside of the queue, or maybe just having a clear road with no traffic, no speed limit and no speed cameras? Let's face it; driving at 5-10 miles per hour is just not a lot of fun. Well maybe it's time to treat yourself and give a whole new meaning to the words "rush hour"
Speed demon?
Experience days can be bought as gifts for friends, loved ones or for yourself, especially if you've had one too many evenings sat on the motorway desperate to get home for dinner. If you've got a need for speed there are motor racing experience days. Ever wondered what it would feel like to do 147 miles per hour in a Lotus Exige? Well, now's your chance! The Exige is a truly superb sports car. Enjoy its beautiful shape, safe in the knowledge that the cutting edge design contributes to its balance, making it one of the quickest and safest cars around. Why not try one of the Ferrari experience days at Silverstone? Choose from the range of experience days, including a chance to drive the incredible Ferrari 360 round Silverstone, home to the British Grand Prix. If it's more the price tag of these amazing cars that gets you going, what could be better than the Lamborghini driving experience days? Costing over £130,000, you may have thought that only the rich and famous could even get to test drive the Lamborghini Gallardo, well not any more.
Or just something a bit more nippy?
If sports cars aren't your thing, don't worry, there are other experience days which will be just up your street. How about a mini cooper? These tiny but speedy little machines can notch up 0-60 in 5 seconds, reaching speeds of 130 miles per hour. Relive your favourite bits from the Italian Job, although perhaps give the dodgy Michael Caine impressions a miss
Want to get off the roads?
Everyone does in normal rush hours, so make sure you do on your day off! Experience days give you a choice of off road driving experiences. Try out one of the 4x4 experience days, typically in a Jeep Cherokee. Test out courses that push your abilities, incorporating inclines, descents and axle twisters along the way. If jeeps aren't for you, you could try an Apache off road racing day. The Apaches are meant to be like driving a rally car on ice. They're exciting and easy to drive, handling with precision and going fast fast fast!
For something completely different
If all those traffic jams have made you mad, maybe it's time you tried a different vehicle altogether. Experience days are available in pretty much every kind of motor vehicle you can imagine. If you know the mini cooper is definitely not for you, why not go to the opposite extreme and go for one of the experience days with something a whole lot bigger? Do you spend your evenings behind bus drivers wondering what they're up to, convinced you could do a whole lot better? Well now is your chance to either prove it and come away smug, or feel a whole lot more generous to the bus drivers you encounter on the way home. The double decker bus experience days, like all the driving experience days provide you with a pre-defined training course with an experienced instructor by your side. Then you're free to have a go on your own. Other experience days available include JBCs, monster trucks, 25 ton articulated dump trucks or even a Liebherr 911 bulldozer!
Give up on four wheels altogether
Quad bike experience days are an excellent way of letting off steam, without the nasty memories of what lies in wait on Monday morning. For those who prefer two wheels, there is the once-in-a-lifetime experience of driving a Harley Davidson. Take one of these fantastic bikes out on the open road, no traffic jams in site!
We've all thought how great it would be to just fly out of traffic jams. We can help you get pretty close with one of our flying experience days. Choose from planes, helicopters, gliders or even hot air balloons. Enjoy one of the flying lesson experience days, a scenic flight over the British countryside or take to the skies for an adrenaline-fuelled aerobatics flight in a Bulldog.
