JCB Racing from Red Letter Days
Now this is the height of cool. Forget about Ferraris, on this experience you get to race a giant excavator - a vehicle that very few people get the chance to drive. After a safety briefing, you'll climb up behind the controls of an 8.5 ton JCB digger, capable of around 20 mph (although when you're in the cab it'll feel a lot quicker). There's hands-on training and at least two race heats over a specially-designed course, including some challenges to complete along the way, with the fastest drivers going through to the grand final. After the racing event has finished, feel free to enjoy the rides and drives in the park - everything is included.
Availability: In Kent: weekend dates from March to November about once a month. In Devon: at least three time a year from May to October. Weather: Driving may be cancelled or curtailed in extreme weather conditions like heavy snow, flooding or high winds, which would make it dangerous. Please call the venue if in any doubt. Duration: Your experience will last for around four hours including a briefing, introduction to the JCBs, tuition, around 20 minutes driving time, debrief and presentation. Numbers On Day: There will be up to 28 people taking part. Spectators: This experience is great for spectators. Bring as many people as you like for the discounted Red Letter Days price of £10 each (payable on the day), which includes access to Diggerland Park. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult. Under 3's go free. Dress Code: Bring a change of clothes and shoes/boots that you don't mind getting muddy or dusty. If it's raining, bring wellies and overalls if you have them (trainers are no good in the wet, you'll be slipping all over the place). Guidelines: You'll receive further location details when you have booked a date. Restrictions: Minimum age is 17. You must hold a full driving licence (and bring it with you), but you don't need any other special licences or experience. Other Info: Please note that if any participant appears to be unfit to take part due to alcohol, drugs or for any other reason, event staff reserve the right to stop them taking part. Dont forget you also enjoy free access to Diggerland Park after your experience.
