Fantastic day
Fantastic day out doing the Ferrari and Aston Martin head to head. All the staff and instructors work to make the day feel very special from the moment you approach the circuit. Great to watch others on track from the international pit straight before the event. Would highly recommend the head to head at Silverstone.

head to head at silverstone
great experience at Silverstone with excellent instruction, cars and circuit. The short south circuit is super, so with the lap time available the circuit was short enough to get some degree of driving flow developing, but challenging enough to test you. Cars were awesome, both the Aston and Ferrari. Preferred the Ferrari though as I love the brand. Worst part ? Booking the experience. Disaster. No info, no ticket, website useless. Didn't even give the address of where to go.

Amazing Day!
I took part in the head to head day at Silverstone and it was amazing! As a 21-year-old who's loved ferrari's and Aston Martins since the top gear days, it was a privilege to drive these amazing cars with such friendly and knowledgeable instructors which added to the experience. I would wholly recommend this day to anyone!

Amazing Experience at an Iconic Venue
The whole experience was smoothly organised and very well run. Specific date was chosen on line without problem and joining instructions were clear. A 20 minute briefing, then 1 lap with the instructor driving, quick change and then driving an Aston around the Silverstone International Circuit for 4 laps - awesome! Back in and then into the Ferrari driving seat. The cars were pristine and performed well. The whole thing was a full morning, my only complaint is I want to do it again NOW ;-)

Fantastic experience
This experience was a gift to me it was very well organised. Having the opportunity to drive both a Ferrari & Aston Martin made it even more unique at the Silverstone track. A fantastic day and lovely that family could come and watch too right by the pit lane and trackside. Would highly recommend.

Head to head
Wonderful opportunity to drive a couple of fantastic cars. My first instructor was conscientious explaining everything & gave me the chance to get to know the car before enjoying the power available. Sadly things changed ... I was really looking forward to sampling the V8 vantage power but my second instructor seemed to be in a rush to finish, I don't think I had all my lap allowance & a quick goodbye and it was over. Hopefully a glitch but otherwise a good morning out

Head to Head + a Hot lap
What a great day!! from the greeting at the main gate, the check in, the briefing & to the instruction, its a great day. The atmosphere amongst the other drivers is an experience but in the pits & on the track it is serious fun. The Ferrari & the Aston Martin are just so much fun With the instructor patiently trying to get you onto the correct part of the track, they deserve a medal!! The toon in the M2 just made the day!! Must do it again!!

Still on a high
I was bought the head to head package as a present, although a bit nervous when I got into the first car (Ferrari) but by time I had sped up the pit lane I had a permanent smile on my face. This experience didn't disappoint from the venue, to the people, the instructors (especially my first instructor, a lady whose name I have now forgotten) she was amazing and made you feel at ease from the off! I drove both a Ferrari and an Aston Martin. I want to do it all again next week..

A superb morning!
I have to admit that before the day I was a little apprehensive about getting behind the wheel of two highly powered cars on the race track. However, after a very informative briefing I was ready for it. The instructors in the cars were excellent, constantly providing advice on line through the bends, breaking and power. Thanks to them, lap by lap my confidence and speed increased significantly. Overall it was an extremely exhilarating and enjoyable experience!

First class
'Experience' is what it was, and a first class experience at that. Each and every member of staff I spoke to (booking in on line, advance information, parking stewards, counter staff, cafe service, instructors - each and every one) we're totally professional. We were made to feel wanted and special throughout. The cars were a hoot to drive, the instructors were patient and helpful - and we went like stink! Considering the running costs of those cars it was excellent value. Thank you to everyone.

Fantastic thrill
A well organised and fun morning fuelled with plenty of adrenaline! Thank you to all the briefing staff and driving instructors for making my experience a memorable one. Would highly recommend the head to head thrill and what a fantastic opportunity to drive around the famous Silverstone track at 130mph!! Brilliant gift for petrol heads like me.

Fantastic experience in cars that I will never own, a Ferrari F430 and an Aston Martin V8 Vantage. The Instructors were brilliant and made the adrenaline rush experience one to remember by giving me the confidence to drive at speeds that I would never have attempted without their experience. A big thank you to those involved at Silveestone.

Great Day and well looked after
I've done several similar experiences in the past but found today hugely enjoyable. The instructors were very entertaining, helpful and encouraging in their pre-session briefings and in car, letting me really get to grips with the cars whilst respecting the slippery conditions. A long held ambition to drive a Ferrari achieved and thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks.

Had such a fantastic day, worth every penny. I was worried the cars would be well worn and beaten up, but that wasn't the case at all. The cars looked brand new, and there were lots of them! Such good fun, and the instructors were fantastic too! Thanks very much!
