Driving on a race circuit is very different to normal road driving. To make the most of the cars you’ll be driving on track you need to learn the ‘racing line’ and braking points. We use Performance Saloon Cars for these initial laps. Our ARDS qualified race instructors will demonstrate the racing lines and braking points plus other hints and tips to help you get the most from your driving experience. Out on track it may seem quite unfamiliar with no road marks or signs and no cars coming in the other direction, but after a few laps watching and listening to your race instructor you’ll have built up a good idea of the circuit layout and be confident when you first get behind the wheel and head out on track. |

The Lamborghini Aventador is the long waited replacement to the Murcielago. It's completely new with a light weight carbon composite tub and carbon and aluminium body panels. The 6.5 litre V12 is also a brand new design, more efficient and powerful reaching 690 bhp at 8250 rpm. This time it is mated to a 7 speed single clutch automated manual gearbox and with four wheel drive it can reach 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds and will keep accelerating until V Max at 217 mph. The press have said it is the fastest car this side of the million pound Bugatti [and feels little slower] making the near £300k price tag a bit of a bargain! |

About the Lamborghini Aventador Thrill Experience
Here is a car that looks like it has just driven off the set of the latest futuristic movie.
This long waited replacement to the Murcielago is completely new with a light weight carbon composite tub and carbon and aluminium body panels.
The 6.5 litre V12 is also a brand new design, more efficient and powerful reaching 690 bhp at 8250 rpm. This time it's mated to a 7 speed single clutch automated manual gearbox and with four wheel drive it can reach 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds and will keep accelerating until V Max at 217 mph.
A new design of scissor doors allows easier access to the cockpit. The driver’s seat seemingly just above ground level. Prominent is the red safety cover to the engine start button. The V12 has the characteristic starter motor whir before catching on all 12 cylinders with a sonic boom!
The press have said it's the fastest car this side of the million pound Bugatti Veyron [and feels little slower] making the near £300k price tag a bit of a bargain!
Before the Lamborghini comes some time to learn the circuit with an ARDS instructor in a performance saloon car.
