Closest experience to real racing.

Matthew 6 July 2025

This was an absolute awesome experience, As a big fan of motor racing i enjoyed every moment. There is not many experiences like this left due to safety regulation and rules. The team was great at giving advice and racing knowledge. They said it how it was and allowed you to take the car to your limits. Highly recommended and will definitely do it again.

Absolutely Awesome Adrenelin Plus

Luciano 24 February 2024

I would say the best motor sport experience ever. The entire crew were professional, friendly and super informative. The open wheelers were all well maintained, the only limitation is the driver. I would thoroughly recommend Fastlane Racing

Best experience I've had being a formula 1 fan this was as close as it gets. From the very start to the end of the day the staff really looked after all of us drivers.

Perfect Birthday Present

Lauren 15 July 2022

I purchased this voucher for my boyfriends birthday as he loves formula one. I was tossing up between this experience and a V8 experience however I’m glad I went with this one. He had the best day and we will definitely go again.
