| dodgems experience: |
The core of this event is the opportunity to drive real 1300cc saloon stockcars. During the event, clients will be ‘coached’ by professional drivers and officials. There will generally be 32 drivers in a session (up to a max of 40), and they will take to the track in groups of 8. Through the course of the event, they will take part in a practice session (4 laps) heat 1 (8 laps) and heat 2 (8 laps). Based on the points scored in their Heat sessions, the steward of the meeting will then stream competitors into their championship final (10 laps) – an electrifying race that will pit them against drivers of a similar ability. The winners of the 4 feature finals, will line up for the showdown shoot out race (8 laps) to find the overall winner of the event. |
