Fans of F1 put down the Xbox controller and get ready to live out your dreams of driving an F1 car. The Jordan F1 EJ12 was driven by Takuma Sato and has chassis number 1 and is the only drivable EJ12 chassis in existence. This makes this more than just a unique driving day it makes it the best driving experience in the world. So now its your turn to jump into the driver seat and get buckled up as you learn what it takes and feels like to drive a real F1 car. The experience will start off with a 30-minute comprehensive driver safety and techniques briefing. Covering racing lines, throttle/braking technique, and track etiquette. Once this essential stuff has been taken care of it's time to let the real fun begin. You'll receive a number of reflex training laps in a performance saloon getting you used to throttle control followed by 4 sighting laps of the B-17 Bomber track again in a performance saloon. This will help you learn the track when you finally get to enjoy your 10 driving laps of the 600bhp beast that is the Jordan F1. The full itinerary can be found below. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and should not be missed.
