Say hello to the most powerful, fastest accelerating, front-wheel-drive car we’ve ever had the pleasure of at Knockhill. The Type R responds instantly to the driver, no hesitation. Underneath the sculpted bonnet lies a four-cylinder VTEC TURBO engine. It’s no surprise to discover this gives the Type R the ability to sprint from 0-62 mph in 5.8 seconds and achieve 169 mph top speed. Powering the Type R through the dramatic undulations of our famous racing circuit is exhilarating.

Where do I start? This was the best day ever and the best experience of my life. I was here to do the Honda Type R experience as my wife bought me it for my 30th, can’t believe how much of a buzz it was to drive a car at 120 mph+ without getting moaned at and also the staff there where amazing. Will defo be doing this in the future again, 10/10

Just a quick note to say thank you to all the staff at Knockhill for making me feel so welcome on Friday, it was a shame that the weather was bad but this did not detract from the enjoyment I took out of taking my MX5 around Knockhill. Can you please extend my appreciation to all the staff that were on site for making what could be quite a daunting experience for the ordinary punter into a relaxed fun day. I hope to return to Knockhill to perhaps repeat this course in better weather.

Gordon Shedden Experience - This was the second occasion on which I had booked the two hour track session for my son with Gordon Sheddon and it did not disappoint. In fact, it was even better than the first time! Gordon is not only a brilliant driver, British Touring Car Champion and tutor, but a lovely chap who is willing to talk to mums about his racing life. Chris, my son, had learnt a huge amount from Gordon three years earlier and bringing this knowledge, and of the track, made this visit even more rewarding and memorable. Gordon is patient, clear with his instructions and yet allows guests to have fun - and drive incredibly fast in an amazing car. In summary, if you are looking for a unique, awesome and unforgettable present for a car enthusiast, this is the gift to be giving.

Gordon Shedden Experience - Hi Tracey, I just wanted to say thanks to all at Knockhill for such a fantastic day on Tuesday. The drive with Gordon was absolutely amazing and I don't think I've stopped smiling yet. Please can you pass on my thanks to Gordon for such a brilliant experience (especially his fast laps…WOW!).

Staff were bright, friendly and very knowledgeable. He really showed me how balance and feel of the car is as important as raw power. He also managed to take my driving confidence which was low after a crash last year and build it back up, no easy feat. 10/10 all round. It was a brilliant experience.
