Your Honda Type-R Performance Drive
Prepare to take to the track in one of the UK’s most sought after Hot Hatches! The Civic Type-R is a car only Honda could make and is synonymous with the thrill of driving, engineered to provide you with a true feeling of connection with the car and the road. An expert instructor will give you 1:1 personal track tuition and put you through your paces while showing you the best practices and techniques to ensure you get the most out of the 316bhp Honda Civic Type-R.
Honda Civic Type-R
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.
The Track
Knockhill Racing Circuit is Scotland’s only approved Motorsport UK and FIA Internationally graded Circuit and is famous for hosting major televised motorsport events such as the British Touring Car and the British Superbike Championships.
Race Track
A demanding road-circuit style track, 1.27 miles (2km) long, and 30 feet (10 m) wide, with a dramatic series of twists, turns, drops and climbs, varying by around 200 feet (60m) from highest to lowest point. Drive on the same International Circuit as driven by Jackie Stewart, Stirling Moss, David Coulthard, Lewis Hamilton, Paul Di Resta and our very own BTCC Stars Gordon Shedden and Rory Butcher.

"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"

"Good afternoon, I wish to express my gratitude for an excellent experience we had for my partners, birthday. Firstly I had a wonderful service from Lorna who was patient with me, friendly, polite and excellent customer service skills. On the day, the customer service continued to excel and my partner thoroughly enjoyed the experience, I now think I have opened the flood gates and he will be returning regularly! And finally the food was just the cherry on top to end our day, the young girl made us all fantastic chips and set us for the journey through Glasgow in rush hour! I have liked and reviewed your Facebook page. Please pass on my gratitude to your team and I look forward to visiting Knockhill again soon"
