Amazing experience

I got this as a present for my partner as he loves formula one and car racing. It looked absolutely amazing. The instructor James was super friendly and made both myself and my partner at ease. Would 100% recommend to anyone the smile on my partners face when he got out of the car was pure excitement!!!

Radical U drive

Had a fantastic time performing radial u drive. Instructor was great giving guidance to go faster safely around the track. Performance and handling of radical was excellent. Could brake so late and turn in was great. Fantastic drive. The highlands facility is excellent. Would love to do the full track in the future. Enjoyed the funny loo. Recommend highlands to anyone interested in motorsport.
