Father’s Day - The Alternative Racing Mad Day
Last week I finished off my Rally Mad Dad post with a bit of Segway Rallying, and it turns out Segways are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to ‘alternative’ driving days. This week we have skid pans, monster trucks, tanks and even diggers for you to try your hand at…
Dig It Experience
What: Of all the experiences we are going to look at this week, this has to be the most varied! Dig It lets you drive a 25 ton 12 wheel articulated dumper truck, a minidigger, an excavator, and of course, a bulldozer! Fantastic!
Where: Hampshire (South)
How much: £125

Monster Truck Driving for Two
What: Based on the height of its suspension alone (6 ft 6 inch) you can tell this is one amazing beast. You and your dad can drive it this Father’s Day!
Where: Bedfordshire (South East)
How much: £259

Where: Hampshire(South East), Bristol (South West), Northamptonshire (Midlands), Essex (South East)
How much: From £175

Extreme Dodgems
What: This experience is unlike any I’ve written about so far. That’s because it isn’t an experience, it’s real racing! You will complete in a racing evening, with real trophies awarded at the end of the night! The even starts with four practice laps, followed by two racing heats of eight laps each in 1300cc super stock saloon cars. Points are awarded after each race and these will be used to decide the starting positions for the 10 lap final! As if that wasn’t enough to totally wear you out the four highest placed drivers are then pitted against each other in an eight lap shootout!
Where: Birmingham, West Midlands
How much: Price: £149

Skidpan Driving
What: Here’s one way to learn ultimate car control! You will be driving a specially adapted road car complete with a skid frame on a surface designed to simulate a road covered in oil or snow. Your instructor will teach you techniques that will simulate aquaplaning and ice driving. The experience is great fun, but you will also take away techniques that could help you regain car control in poor conditions and potentially save your life!
Where: Chippenham, Wiltshire; Dunfermline, Fife; Louth, Lincolnshire; Towcester, Northamptonshire; Corby, Northamptonshire; Liverpool, Merseyside
How much: £120

JCB Racing
What: Well we started with digger driving experiences, so it only seems right that we should wrap up with some JCB racing! The plan is pretty simple, take one 8.5 ton JCB digger, add your dad, a dash of safety training and you have the ultimate digger experience. The day includes at least two runs over a specially designed course with the top drivers getting proceeding to the final. Digger driving: I promise there’s nothing quite like it!
Where: Cullompton, Devon; Durham, County Durham; Strood, Kent
How much: £126
