About the Mini Cooper 'S' & Honda Civic Type 'R' Experience

FQA

1) Am I allowed to bring my dog?

Unfortunately, dogs aren’t allowed at Motor racing circuits due to insurance restrictions.

2) Am I allowed to bring family and friends?

Under normal circumstances yes but, with Covid restrictions we have to limit it to 1 guest per participant and must be over 18 years of age.

3) _Do you supply tea & Coffee? _

Yes Tea, Coffee and Biscuits are available for all participants and guests.

4) Why have the laps been reduced for the courses?

Due to Covid restrictions we have had to revise our format of running our experience’s, condensing parts and at the same time giving a better experience for our customers. So, we have reduced the laps but, will be running most of our courses on the New Clubmans Circuit which is 2.4km long and the guests will have the same instructor throughout the experience. We have reduced the number of guests down to 3 per session, so we can give a greater experience in a condensed time period.

5) How do we know it is Covid safe to go in a car after another guest?

Our new format allows time for our team to clean every vehicle after use, instructors have PPE ie Gloves, Masks & Face shields and will only ever sit in the passenger’s seat. Once the vehicle has been cleaned with the appropriate disinfectant it returns to the allocated garage.
