With Silverstone's exclusive Grand Prix Challenge you will not only drive some of the greatest performance cars on earth, but also experience the amazing thrill of driving on the world famous Silverstone Grand Prix circuit - a historic track that has been graced by such legends as Clark, Stewart, Senna, Mansell, Hill and Schumacher.
The Grand Prix Challenge has it all: a world famous venue, the finest instructors plus first class hospitality - it really is the ultimate driving day.
On Silverstone's Grand Prix Challenge, you will experience every one of the following 10 activities during the day:
These icons of the supercar world need no introduction. The unmistakable lines of Porsche's 911 Carrera demand you to unleash the awesome potential of its famous flat-six engine, generating 320bhp and giving you the sensation of racing for real.
The Ferrari 360's incredible mid-engine balance eats up the corners, reminding you of the engineering skill that's made Ferrari perennial motor racing winners.
For anyone that's ever wanted to be a racing driver, these cars provide the perfect experience. Uniquely created for Silverstone to offer all the performance you'll ever want, we'll let you go as fast as your senses allow on a specially created circuit designed to maximise their power and potential.
Their ultra-light design allows incredible acceleration with a handling ability that hugs the corners and lets you feel every inch of the track.
Based upon Lotus's renowned race car for the road philosophy, the Exige is a truly hardcore mid-engine sports coupé. Its alluring curves and cutting edge design provide the ultimate package of well balanced down force, but it's the lightweight chassis and generous power that make this one of the most exciting and rewarding cars to drive on a circuit.
Add to this a state-of-the-art engine, tested in the most demanding of conditions and delivering a top speed of 147mph and you've got a car you'll never want to stop driving!
Once youre behind the wheel of the Fiesta ST on our purpose-built gravel rally stage, you'll be handbrake turning and opposite locking in no time. Should your self-preservation instincts curb your enthusiasm, you can really go for it in our race simulators without fear of damage!
Then we'll show you how it should be done as one of our experienced rally instructors takes you for a breathtaking ride in a genuine performance rally car around our unique Super Sprint stage that was specially built for the Rally of Great Britain. It doesn't get any more hair-raising than this!
For raw, uncomplicated driving pleasure the evergreen Caterham 7 is hard to beat. With its sensational power-to-weight ratio, this ultra-light road-legal race car provides nerve shattering performance and almost supernatural controllability. You'll be navigating a tight, challenging course as quickly as possible in a head to head pursuit contest with your rival. But don't make a mistake, or it's all over!
Appreciate the art of tarmac rallying in Silverstone's Peugeot 206 Rally Cup Car and compete head-to-head against your team members in an exciting one-on-one pursuit. Practice the art of understeer and oversteer and experience the agility of handbrake turning through this technical course against the stopwatch.
Its time to take a break from the track as you get to grips with our unique off-road course. There is no vehicle on earth to match the extraordinary powers of the Defender; it will do whatever you ask of it as you take on a series of tricky obstacles. If thats too easy, the all-terrain quad bikes are just about the most fun you can have over mud, dirt and water!
The Grand Prix Challenge kicks-off with registration at 8am, followed by breakfast and a brief introduction to the day's activities - then it's straight into the action. After the morning session you will enjoy a well-earned two-course buffet lunch followed by the afternoon's experiences.
The action concludes with our short awards ceremony that rewards the teams and drivers with the fastest times and best performances.
Then it's time to depart leaving you and your guests with memories that will last a lifetime.
*Please note, the Porsche model may be changed without notice. However, there will always be a model available from Porsche's current line up.
