Drive a tank on the road

Can You Drive a Tank on the Road – the Essential Guide

We want to know if we could get ourselves a fully tracked vehicle and drive the tank ourselves into work, on the public roads!

But are tanks road legal? Do you have to be a member of the Special Forces to be able to drive one? And how on earth do you parallel park? We decided to lift the hatch on the muddy world of military vehicle driving and investigate further…

Go head to head in some really super supercars in Stafford

[caption id="attachment_1457" align="alignleft" width="250"] As our Mum said on seeing this picture 'You've got that determined look on your face'. Hmmm[/caption] On our recent visit to this rallying and supercar operator in Staffordshire, the guys and girls told us about this new supercar head to head experience that they are now offering - and it's a good one! You get to choose to drive two cars from a pool of four of the finest supercars out there at the moment : the Audi R8, Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari 360, and the Aston Martin V8 Vantage. We have to say, it's not...

New outdoor go karting experience

We've just added go karting in Suffolk to our portfolio of go karting venues. The centre offers a top notch 700m long tarmac outdoor circuit packed full of high-speed straights and hair-raising hair pins for you to attack in the 250cc go karts. There's no complicated Grand Prix system in operation here, you simply turn up, take part in the safety briefing then get kitted up and out onto the track. In essence, you could find yourself enjoying some time driving solo around the track, or racing head to head with other track users. Either way, you'll love the fact...
