The Experience
This driving experience gives you the opportunity to compare two legendary performance cars on a professional race circuit.
The Nissan Skyline GT-R has built a worldwide reputation as one of the most capable performance cars ever produced. Known for its advanced engineering and powerful turbocharged engine, the Skyline delivers impressive acceleration and remarkable grip on the track.
Alongside it sits the Lamborghini Gallardo, a true Italian supercar powered by a dramatic V10 engine. With striking styling and strong performance, the Gallardo offers a completely different driving experience.
Your day begins with a briefing from a professional instructor before heading onto the circuit.
You will first take the wheel of one of the cars for 6 miles of driving, giving you the chance to experience its acceleration, handling and overall performance. After returning to the pits, you will switch cars and head back onto the track for another 6 miles behind the wheel of the second supercar.
After both driving sessions, you’ll move to the passenger seat of a specially prepared performance saloon for a high-speed lap driven by a race instructor.
Driving two such different performance machines back-to-back creates a memorable day on the track and a rare opportunity to experience both Japanese engineering and Italian supercar design in one visit.
