Porsche Track Experience | Frequently Asked Questions
Payment and Cancellation Conditions
Program Information
How does the day run in terms of timing?
Participants should arrive at 8:15am for registration (and light breakfast).Precision and Precision Plus programs conclude at approximately 3:30pm, the Performance program concludes at approximately 4:00pm and all higher levels conclude at approximately 5:00pm. The driver briefing commences at 8:30am. Attendance at the briefing is mandatory; participants who miss it may not be allowed to drive due to the safety requirements.
On the day, how much time is spent in the cars driving?
For the Precision (Level 1) and Precision Plus (Level 2) Track Experience the day begins with a morning briefing. Following this, participants are split into groups where they rotate through various activities (for example emergency braking, skid pan, understeer and oversteer, slalom, cornering). Following a lunch break in the afternoon, there is another couple of hours of activities (for example lapping and motorkhana).
For the Performance (level 3) program, Master (Level 4) and our GT3 Cup or GT4 RS Clubsport (Level 5) programs participants will spend even more time in the cars. As participants are required to have previous experience, they will bring with them assumed knowledge regarding the structure of the day and the running of activities. This reduces briefing time and allows for more driving time.
Which Porsche vehicles do you drive?
The Porsche vehicles available on the day vary with the experience you are participating in. To view a complete list of vehicles for each level, please visit the specific experience information page on our website.
