Dumper Truck Racing
About this experience
There’s something indescribable about getting behind the controls of a dumper truck, the feeling of the power beneath your seat and the rumble of the engine. On this JCB Dumper Truck Racing experience you can climb into the driver’s cabin and put your skills to the test on a thrilling race against the clock.
It’s not just best lap times you’ll be trying to beat, as there’ll be fierce competition to prove yourself worthy of the Grand Final as you race around Diggerland’s special course. You’ll need to get to grips with all the wheels, levers and pedals if you’re going to walk away with a certificate of champions, so make sure you’re paying attention when your instructor shows you what’s what.
Every competitor will get at least two race heats in their pursuit of the championship, but only those logging the best times will progress to the Grand Final. We can’t promise that you’ll get there – only your own skills and wits will get you to the top!

“Fantastic Fun”
So much fun laughed so much great fun. Would go again. I was rubbish but it didn’t matter.
“Hilarious ”
I was bought this as a birthday present from my kids (I am 64!) They knew I would love it and they were right! I am very competitive but soon realised it was a lot harder than it looked! The dumper trucks do not have a steering wheel but an extremely sensitive joy stick! That together with a quagmire of a ‘racetrack’ made it a difficult but exciting and hilarious 2 hours! I probably came last but it was such good fun! I highly recommend it, just remember to wear wellies!
“Excellent afternoons fun”
Did dumper truck racing with my Godson at Diggerland Kent. Very enjoyable and dusty time, Amy T , Steve and all the staff we met were really friendly and helpful and there are a lot of other things to see and do. Definitely will go there again.
