Published: 10:00, 10 June 2015
For a real adrenaline rush take your kids to Race Hub, the newest and most exciting place to go for a day out.
Having only opened in October 2013, the race simulation centre at Brands Hatch Park hasn’t been around for long but is becoming increasingly popular among youngsters and adults alike.
The venue holds seven simulators and users of different abilities can try out whichever levels suit them best.
What’s more, there is a choice of cars to drive
For a real motor racing experience, all the machines can be linked together so that users can race together if they wish.
Try out one of the simulators for five minutes at £6 at any time but for a full half an hour or hour slot, bookings should be made in advance.
Your little one can pretend to be Lewis Hamilton for the day as they get to experience the most realistic Formula 1 and touring car technology to date.
Manager Mark Russell says: “If you haven’t got your racing licence and you want to experience what it would feel like then this is probably the next best thing.”
