These "Pocket Rockets" are serious racing machines, each powered by a feisty 125bhp Yamaha motorcycle engine. Compact yet mighty, they’re 5/8-scale replicas of 1930s American classics, designed with rear-wheel drive and a light frame, giving them an impressive power-to-weight ratio. Known for their quick steering and quirky character, they’re agile enough to turn on a sixpence, flying down straights and cornering with thrilling precision. Legends race cars deliver an experience so addictive you’ll be hooked after just one lap! It’s an exhilarating, action-packed day at Knockhill, and the perfect gift for any occasion.
You’re in for an unforgettable adventure! Top-notch instruction in the sleek Alpine A110 sports car, followed by an exhilarating professional demo run. This all primes you for the main event: a ten-lap solo session in a Legends Racing Car.

We're thrilled to introduce you to this multi award-winning sports car - the Alpine A110.

I've done two Race Day Experiences here and both were fantastic. The instructors are amazing; I've never felt so scared yet safe in my life. Driving the race car with your butt 2 inches off the ground felt like doing light speed! Glad to see my driving has been improved too :)

I was initially booked to do this in November 2020 but had to cancel at the last minute due to COVID restrictions so the voucher expired. A full 6 months after the voucher had expired I logged in to try and use it and was delighted to find it had been extended free of charge. On the day I arrived and was given a wrist band and directed to a parking area. The instructor came to collect the drivers from their cars and at no time did we have to get together indoors as a group which was great given current issues with COVID. The instructor in the Honda Civic type r takes you round the track twice showing you the racing lines and you then swap and drive 4 laps with him giving more tips and advice. After that it’s on to the legends cars, the first session is driven with a bolt in the accelerator pedal to restrict the revs and if you keep it on track you can have this taken out for the remaining sessions. The car was fantastic especially unrestricted and the whole visit was great fun. I don’t remember the staff members name who helped us at the legends cars but he was brilliant, very friendly and put your mind at ease while still getting over the required safety advice. Thanks knockhill and hopefully be back soon!
