Clockwise - The classic Knockhill experience! Exit the pitlane to your left and charge down to Duffus Dip, one of the most notorious corners in UK motorsport.

Anti-Clockwise - Same venue, new track! Enter the pitlane and turn right, where the final corner becomes the first, kicking off your session with a dive into the famous hairpin.

Twin Track – A UK Exclusive! - Why settle for one track when you can drive two? Start your day driving anti-clockwise, break for a relaxing lunch, then hit the track again in the familiar clockwise formation for a completely different experience, all in the same day!
