You get 20 minutes in the car, around either the National or International circuit. Better still, you don’t need to hold a driving licence and there’s no minimum age; you just need to be between four foot six and six foot three inches tall, and weigh less than 16 stone.

Choose from a number of dates between now and July, and the entire experience, including the briefing, is £59.
