The Experience
This driving experience gives you the chance to get behind the wheel of a British classic car on track.
You’ll begin by choosing your car from a selection of well-known models. Each one offers a different driving feel, from compact and responsive to more powerful and refined.
Once on track, you’ll take your chosen car out for a dedicated driving session. The focus is on enjoying the character of the car, from how it handles through corners to how it responds as you pick up speed.
Classic cars offer a different driving experience compared to modern models. The design and feel combine to create something that stands out on track.
After your drive, you’ll take the passenger seat for a high-speed lap in a performance saloon driven by a professional. This experience runs at 32 UK locations and is available for full licence holders.

Important Information
Available for full license holders only.
Once a date has been booked, the experience cannot be cancelled or refunded. If a car or event becomes unavailable through no fault of the customer, an alternative vehicle or a new date will be offered.
As events can occasionally be cancelled at short notice, it’s recommended not to book non-refundable accommodation. Changes can be made up to 7 days before the event for a £5 admin fee. Within 7 days, an admin fee of £29 per car applies. Fees may be higher for premium venues or specialist experiences.
Your Golden Moments voucher is not a ticket - please activate your voucher at www.goldenmoments.co.uk/redemption so we can arrange your booking for you.
The Weather
Events go ahead in all weather conditions. Sessions will only be cancelled if the conditions are considered unsafe for driving on track.
Session Length
Experiences are measured in miles, but track layouts and speeds vary by venue. A 3-mile drive usually lasts around 10 minutes, while a 6-mile drive is typically closer to 15 minutes.
Numbers
Your voucher is valid for one person and your in-car training is on a one-to-one basis, although safety briefings may be shared.
Spectators
Spectators are welcome, but clear views of the track can’t always be guaranteed. Parking costs £2 per vehicle at most locations, while premium venues offer free parking. Dogs are not permitted at the venues, with the exception of registered guide dogs.
What To Wear
All events take place outdoors, so come prepared for the weather. Even on a sunny day, it can get quite windy at airfields and circuits, so bringing a coat or umbrella is a good idea.
For driving, wear trainers or flat, sensible shoes along with comfortable trousers. You’ll be asked to remove your right shoe before driving for safety reasons.

You can enjoy your driving experience on selected dates throughout the year.
