Begin your Formula Ford test day learning how to operate the controls of this single-seater Van Diemen FR 00 Zetec racing car. You'll cover the lay-back driving position, the stubby, right hand 4 speed gearshift and the non-synchromesh down-changing technique.

Then it's on to the circuit for 3 laps of the circuit in a passenger car to learn from the instructor all the important features of the Wakefield track.

After the instruction is over, it's time to enjoy the sensations of driving an open-wheel racing car for the first time, under the watchful eyes of your instructors. Drive for over 10 laps of the 2.2km circuit learning the lines and tuning your skills.

Before breaking for lunch, take your road car onto the track for a 20 minute session with one of our instructors for some further tuition.

After lunch we repeat the whole process with the speed of the cars increased. This is wgere the cars begin to show their real character. Lots of pulling out of the corners and a higher top speed on the straight.
