What an utterly fantastic idea! Oh what I would have given to have done this as a teenager!

A great day thoroughly enjoyed. Staff and instructors were friendly and helpful throughout. All are a great asset to the circuit. Only downside was having to stop!

My son was there yesterday for a Teen drive and absolutely loved it. The staff were great with the kids and could not fault the day. The package was such good value with driving on a paddock course with junctions and roundabouts so the kids had to follow proper road rules. Next they were driving on the rally course giving them a longer driving time but thankfully not getting shown how to do handbrake turns. In between the driving they also gave the teens mock theory tests in the classroom. To end the day the kids went on the go-karts. The whole experience lasted around 3.5 hours and certainly worth the money. Definitely going to book Teen drive 2 which is more intense.

The Drive of Your Life - Myself and my partner were gifted the Ferrari and Aston Martin Experience as a present in May this year, we booked our session for the middle of August but on our way to Knockhill they contacted us to say there was an issue with one of the cars, as we were only a few miles away we went in past anyway. The staff were brilliant and rearranged the drive for a time and date that was convenient for us assuring us we would enjoy our day when it came. So we drove back to Knockhill full of anticipation for the day ahead...we arrived were booked in and met our instructor Dave who would guide us around the track. Knockhill is a wonderful place to be, the smell of fuel, the noise from the Formula race cars, the crunching of gravel from the distant rally course and the amazing V8 burble and rumble as the grey ghost that is the Aston Martin DB9 Vantage crests the last corner and heads past the pit wall! The coaching session is like sitting with a driving examiner who just wants you to go faster, smoother, and to the limit - but always with the utmost safety in mind. The practice laps done, driver ability assessed we were given the all clear to get behind the wheel of the Aston.and Ferrai, This was the drive of my life in the most exquisitely engineered pieces of automotive excellence. The laps are over all too quickly, you gain confidence but are always aware of where you are, with your on board instructor, this time Craig sitting alongside ensuring that you get the best out of the experience. I would like to thank everyone at Knockhill who made our day so incredible... Would I recommend this to anyone...well yes, I haven't shut up about it since. Well done Knockhill, you definitely get Pole Position and take the Chequered Flag for a win win win!

Had a great experience driving my own car on the circuit. My instructor James was great. He was really knowledgeable and explained car control to me really clearly and ultimately showed me how to get the most from my car on the day. Would absolutely recommend any track experience at Knockhill.
