You may not have had any driving lessons yet, but this is certainly a special way of experiencing your first time behind the wheel of a car. But not just any car, this is a Ferrari and a Group N Rally car. Ferrari is the most well known manufacture of performance cars in the world with a history that is rich with trophies from all motorsports and this is your chance to drive one for real. Not only that but you'll be able to have a go at rallying. This is all about car control as you'll no doubt find out that these cars are difficult to handle on a loose gravel stage.
Your experience will begin with a 10 minutes welcome and safety briefing on driving techniques. As this will probably be the first time you get to drive a car, you will first spend 10 minutes in a performance car so you understand gear changing, brakes and steering. After you have understood this, one of the instructors will take you out for four familiarisation laps in a performance training car. Then it's your turn to drive the Ferrari for four sensational laps. In the afternoon you will attend another briefing on safe gear changing, braking and steering on loose surfaces. Then it's onto your first session in the Group N Rally Car so you can get used to all of the controls. After this will be a second driving session which will combine all aspects of driving on loose surfaces. At the end you will be rewarded with an individual driving certificate.
