We recommend that you ask your hotel at the time of booking to arrange any transportation requirements.
6) Can I bring a guest?
We do not recommend that you bring a guest as there is very little to see or do once the driver is out on the track, any guests would have to stay in the confines of the Clubhouse, but would be able to take lunch with you.
7) Are there any age restrictions?
You would need to be over the age of 18 (to gain access to the Proving Ground) and have a full and valid driver’s licence.
