ABOUT US:
6th Gear Experience was founded in 2006 to offer both public and corporate clients superb Supercar experiences. Andy Cummings was one of the original co-founders and from 2018, now manages the business in its entirety. He is a keen ‘petrolhead’ and the 2014 Radical SR3 European Masters Champion and has also raced at Le- mans.
Employing a contingent of full time staff based at its HQ in Solihull together with around 100 ARDS qualified race instructors, 6th Gear also boasts a state of the art workshop with full bodyshop facilities to maintain its fleet to the highest standards.
Interestingly 6th Gear also operates a fleet of branded DAF double-decker articulated race car transporters which are capable of transporting the 30 Supercars owned by the company to its Six UK circuits. Furthermore the company is proud to provide Supercar Driving Experience’s in the form of Gift Vouchers to most of the major High Street chains including M&S, Selfridges, John Lewis and Debenhams.
In 2020, we also merged with Driveme to offer further excellent supercar driving experience across the country, including Stafford Driving Centre which we have exclusive access to. We're also the sole providers of supercar driving experiences at Castle Combe Circuit and Anglesey Circuit!
We never forget that an event day is a very special occasion for our customers and will continually strive to be the best in the industry.
HOW IT WORKS:
- If you have been purchased a gift voucher (lucky you!) then booking is simple. You can click on Circuits and Dates first to view our events calendar. Once you have decided on which date/track is most suitable for you, you can click Redeem Voucher on the top left of the website and follow the instructions on the screen to help book you in. Please bear in mind that we do need to know your car choices at the time of booking!
Due to popularity, we do ask for 8-12 weeks' notice with all bookings!
If you do have difficulty booking the experience in on the website, you're more than welcome to call the office on: 01675 433 800 and our friendly Customer Service Team can help you organise your experience day.
If you're looking to purchase an experience, you can find all of our products on our website. Whether it is for an adult or for a junior (yes...we let juniors drive our cars!), we have something for everybody!
Again, if you're completely spoiled for choice, give the team a call and our team can help you come up with your ideal package/experience.
ON THE DAY:
On the day, you simply need to get to the venue for your arrival time for with your driving licence (not applicable for juniors and passengers of course!)
You will then be signed in by our Driver Registration team who will check through all details etc. At this point, you have the option to upgrade your experience with a sighting lap, recordings, upgraded passenger rides and even extra laps driving if you would like! Once done, you will be given your Driver Ticket which has your itinerary printed on here.
Next up, the real fun begins! If your experience includes a demonstration lap, one of our pros will show you the layout of the circuit, whilst showing you the braking points so you can familiarise yourself before your drive.
You will be introduced to the friendly instructor allocated to your supercar and then the driving will begin from there! Length of time on track of course depends on which package you go for.
If your voucher includes a high speed passenger ride, this is where the Instructor will take you out TOP SPEEDS of the track so they can show you how it is really done!
Once all experiences are completed, you can check your professionally captured images of your time on track at our specially-designed photo truck; you have the opportunity purchase them and have them printed or digitally sent to you. We also send a certificate out to all customers who go through the photo truck!
Once you have been on an experience day with us, you get 10% off your next purchase with your loyalty code!
