This F1 Safety car experience consists of driving the Mercedes AMG GTR and the Aston Martin V8 Vantage. These cars have led more F1 races than any other car, if only for just one lap! Both these cars have F1 safety car livery and are both 500+ BHP so buckle up and get ready to enjoy some serious power at the press of the throttle! On arrival, you will receive a driver's safety briefing before jumping in behind the wheel of each of these insanely powerful cars. You will get to take each car out on track for 3 miles in each with an instructor beside you giving you guidance and insuring you have the best possible experience. The acceleration, speed, and handling of these two cars can only be truly appreciated by driving them firsthand.
