RaceMaster M3 and single seater
First of all you get a really good briefing about driving, lines, safety etc. You then go out for 1 lap with your instructor in a full spec BMW M3 to show you the lines. When you come back in you swap seats and its your turn to drive! It is a truly amazing car! We did a few laps where the instructor talks you through the lines …and to go faster!
When you come back in you have another briefing for the single seater specific (gears, clutch and braking) then you put on your helmet and gloves and slip into the very compact cockpit of the single seater. This drive is totally different with no power steering, no power brakes and a crunchy 4 speed box. However, after a few laps (no pace car to follow - its just you and the others) you are again speeding around the track. I spun off once which was a bit scary but as you continue round you get the hang of it and put your foot down on the straight!
My heart was racing when I came back in and I felt so excited! You still have the M3 experience with a pro driver at the wheel and do a lap which is just as good fun, as it was slightly damp we went round sideways!
Afterwards everyone gets together and you go through the comments from your instructor. I came 5th out of 11 which isn’t bad for a woman, plus I got 80 out of a 100 so that was great news for me! The whole experience took around 2-3hr experience which I think is well worth the money...I want to go back and do the super cars next!

RaceMaster M3 and single seater!!
I have done this twice now at Brands....
Its been awesome both times :)
First of all you get a really good briefing about driving, lines, safety etc. You then go out for 1 lap with your instructor in a full spec BMW M3 to show you the lines. When you come back in you swap seats and its your turn to drive! And its a truly amazing car! We did about 10-12 laps lasting about 15-20mins. Your instructor wants you to go as fast as safely possible and by about the 6th lap, it seems (see my final comments) like you are flying and start overtaking people on their Ferrari days.
Then you come back in and have another briefing which is single seater specific (gears, clutch and braking) before donning your full race suit, helmet and gloves and slip into the very "cosy" cockpit of the single seater. This drive is totally different with no power steering, no power brakes and a crunchy 4 speed box. However, after a few laps (no pace car to follow - its just you and the others) you are again speeding past Ferraris and then the M3's! Your braking gets later and your lap times drop and before you know it, you are on the limiter on the final straight and braking very little for the bends!
When you come back in, your heart is racing and your body is tingling all over and your legs are like jelly getting out of the car as they unclip the steering wheel!
While still adrenalin fuelled, you jump back in the M3 with a pro driver at the wheel and do a lap which is just BONKERS BONKERS BONKERS!! and if you thought you were going fast in the M3 before you realise you weren't - haha!!
Anyway, after all this has finished, you get out of your gear and have a mini award ceremony for best driver and fastest lap (me....yippee)
All in All this was a good 2-3hr experience with total 30-40mins and 25-30 laps in the cars - well worth the extra money over the 3lap type experiences!
Family and friends are more than welcome to be in the garages watching so a good family event.
