As you approach the car you will hear the enchanting burble of the powerful Subaru flat-four engine. You will then get a short safety briefing in the car before being let loose in one of the fastest production saloon cars in the world. When you pull away the first thing that you will notice is how fast you have to go through the gears to keep up with the acceleration.

Even though you are driving one of the most powerful production cars in the world you will be amazed at how easy it is to drive on the limit.

Courses are held either on an oil-like surface or using a computerised skid frame (looks like stabilisers on your bike, only they're not very stabilising). Some courses also include time trials to test your new skills.
