Superb choice of iconic cars. Options to add more on the day subject to availability. Well organised and professional. We visited the Bicester site and had a wonderful day. Scant facilities but that's to be expected. You're there to drive, nothing else. Staff, admin & instructors were all great. Drove the GT40, DB5, General Lee and Starsky's Ford Gran Torino. Will definitely go back again.

My 11 year old son drove a Porsche, Gt and a Corvette c7 today at Northampton circuit. He had a great time, the event was well organized and the staff helpful. Got there at 10.30 and left around 12.30. He will be back again soon!

What a lovely morning!My 12 year old son Drove a McLaren 570s and a GTR and had a high speed passenger ride and he really enjoyed himself. This is a slick operation, there are tons of staff, it seemed really well organised, we were signed in, first drive and fast passenger ride done within 30 minutes which was amazing! We paid another £25 for him to go in the GTR on the day which was an extra treat for him.I had seen some really bad reviews and I was worried before I arrived as to what we would encounter but I spoke with the lovely Rebecca before hand about a query and felt 100% better before arriving and rightly so because our experience was fantastic, swift, friendly and organised , we had the car we booked plus the option to purchase another car ride also.We used a Next experience voucher, so be aware that there are upgrade charges attached to certain cars. Also as stated on vouchers/ terms and conditions in emails for car chase heroes, there is an optional damage waiver fee of £25 , if you don't want to take this, a debit or credit card is needed in case of accidental damage to the cars, personally we paid it, because I wasn't going to be on the hook for thousands if anything had happened!! For our experience for our 12 year old this was spot on. This is not a crazy super high speed track if you are a speed freak, this was the one in Crawley RH17 6TH there are junior drivers age 11 and up so bear that in mind when making a booking, look the place up first to see the shape of the run, perfect for our experience though.There are upgrades/upsells available on the day, everything is optional and none of it is pressure sold, we did choose to treat our son to a 2nd car but we chose not to purchase photos or videos etc.Facilities were good, toilet block and parking on site. Burger van which saved the morning (a tad pricey but you don't have to buy if you don't want to! You can take your own!) We were not hanging around that long but they suggest camping chairs for if you do. All in all a great morning!

Great driving experience at Abingdon Airfield!!My son had a driving experience voucher for his birthday, there were loads of iconic and super cars to choose from with the voucher, some were an extra charge and you could book extra cars too.On booking online or arrival there are additional charges -£2 for Parking card or cash.£29 Damage Waiver - No brainier!(If you don't pay this waiver they need a card with at least £5,000 available).The queue was minimal and check in was very easy. You are offered training laps or other cars at this point, but are cheaper once in the pit.You are assigned drives in the order you come through. You are called out by the staff once its your turn.We had the first time available and didn't wait long for either car.The only downside was he was on the junior track but wanted to go on the main track.The event was well organised and the staff very friendly.Spectators can only stand/wait in the one area, it's recommended to bring camping chairs as there is no seating at all, only for the drivers waiting in the pit.You don't get to see the whole track, but you do get to see all the amazing cars.Do note the booking and reminder email, both detail the additional charges and the specific facilities available.There is great food, drink and toilets, but no seating around this section either.

Finally got the chance to book my 40th birthday present that had been postponed due to covid.. it was wort the wait.We went to the Three Sisters Race Track in Wigan. Had a fab day .. I drove the batmobile from the TV series it was brilliant experience.I'd recommend taking a camping chair with you though as there is a lot of standing around.Staff were lovely and helpful pointing you in the right direction and keeping you informed when you'll be called upLooking forward to going back again as there are quite a few more cars I'd like to try

This weekend I went to Stoneleigh for my 1975 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Experience. After having seen a lot of negative reviews I was quite nervous but went in with an open mind and I was pleasantly surprised.There are some hidden costs (£2 for Parking and £29 Damage Waiver) - If you don't pay the waiver they need a card with at least £5,000. Quite a few people were getting irate about it but I had already expected this from the reviews. The check in was very slick and worked very well, especially the queuing system. You can ask the staff calling out names to see how many people are in front of you. In hindsight it's a good idea to bring a camping chair, but seating was available in the shade. My wait was 1 hour and a half, which I didn't mind because you have a good view of the track and the cars.My instructor was very friendly and although the car wasn't in the best condition, I was amazed that a 50 y/o Aston Martin was still running on one of the hottest days of the year after taking repeated abuse on the track. I was expecting it to break down and have to go in something else but it ran fine. The instructor was very friendly and I was never held up by any other cars on the track so I was able to really chuck it into the corners and get my foot down. It was an absolute blast on the track, even for an older car.There was cold drinks but I'd recommend you bring your own as it was £2.80 for a Coke.I'd definitely go again, it was a real treat.

My 10 year old drove a subaru, Porsche and a Camaro around Three sisters track. Super organised, this was a Monday, much quieter than a weekend. He couldn't praise his instructors enough, they were all lovely with him and really encouraging.

Waste of time.I've done many of these experiences before. This is the first one with Car Chase Heroes.I was waiting for 2 hours in the blazing heat to drive the Nissan Skyline. We were given a link to a website where you can see your position in the queue upon check-in. Mine said 20 mins and after roughly 1 hour of waiting my name was at the top of the list. I waited another half an hour for them not to call my name, seeing numerous other people be called to drive the same car before me.I asked what was going on and the lady promised me I would be the next to drive the car. Not 5 minutes later she calls someone else's name and they got to drive the car before me.I was very upset and asked what was going on only to be told by someone else that this was totally normal, it had been 1 hour and 45 minutes at this point and my name had not been called once. To add insult to injury once I confronted them on the wait time and allowing someone else to go Infront of me the lady remarked I said you'd be next to sit in the chair not drive the car".Overall a very poorly organised experience. I would never book with this company again. I expected to have to wait a bit but 2 hours is taking the Mick. Avoid at all costs."
