Gordon Shedden Experience

Love Knockhill, all the staff are really helpful, I've done some rally days and my son has just done the teen drive

I got the extended race experience for a birthday present and had a brilliant morning there, the new Honda Civic type Rs were really exciting to drive and the single seaters really felt like proper racing cars, the cost was really reasonable for the amount of driving you get, I'd do it again in a minute.

1st time visitor, staff were all very warm and welcoming, great venue

I was initially booked to do this in November 2020 but had to cancel at the last minute due to COVID restrictions so the voucher expired. A full 6 months after the voucher had expired I logged in to try and use it and was delighted to find it had been extended free of charge. On the day I arrived and was given a wrist band and directed to a parking area. The instructor came to collect the drivers from their cars and at no time did we have to get together indoors as a group which was great given current issues with COVID. The instructor in the Honda Civic type r takes you round the track twice showing you the racing lines and you then swap and drive 4 laps with him giving more tips and advice. After that it’s on to the legends cars, the first session is driven with a bolt in the accelerator pedal to restrict the revs and if you keep it on track you can have this taken out for the remaining sessions. The car was fantastic especially unrestricted and the whole visit was great fun. I don’t remember the staff members name who helped us at the legends cars but he was brilliant, very friendly and put your mind at ease while still getting over the required safety advice. Thanks knockhill and hopefully be back soon!

My 13 year old son was given the Teen Drive 1 experience for his birthday and he loved it. They give loads of driving time and got the kids straight into the cars and driving within minutes of starting. It was a 4 hour+ experience, nicely broken up in segments between driving round the car park, hazard perception, then on to the rally track, bit more theory, then finished off with a karting session. It was clear all of the kids enjoyed their day. The instructors were all fantastic and the day was very well organised in general. He's looking forward to Teen Drive 2 next month.
