Adapted Rally Car Driving Experience

Experience Information

Experience the thrill of driving a hand-controlled Rally Car on an official rally track. Choose between half-day or full-day experiences for an unforgettable adventure.

What is Adapted Rally Driving?

Since June 2015, Ablenet has been proud to offer specially adapted rally cars, enabling disabled drivers to participate in all of the rally driving experiences, including the Junior Rally Experience!

The cars feature a convenient semi-automatic transmission with a paddle gear change system on the steering wheel. Additionally, the pedals are operated using hand-controlled levers. As long as you have full use of both arms and your upper body, you can join in and immerse yourself in the excitement of the rally experience days.

Ablenet prioritizes accessibility and comfort for all visitors. The site is fully equipped to accommodate disabled individuals, featuring ramped access into the Rally HQ building, disabled restrooms, and a spacious hard-standing area. Ablenet strives to ensure that getting in and out of the car is as comfortable as possible for everyone. Prices start at £185.00
