Extra guests are allowed, with a 10€ entrance fee payable per person on the day of the event (children between 3 and 12 pay 5€, and children between 0-3 years may enter free of charge).

Experience duration

Depending on the number of people taking part in your driving session, and your particular driving package, the event will approximately last between 1 and 2 hours. Since you will be joined at the event by a number of other emocionday clients, you may have to wait a short period until it is your turn to drive.

Special conditions

The participant must satisfy the following conditions before taking part in the experience:

• for driving: hold a current and fully valid driving licence (Spanish, EU or International). For highway driving, the minimum age is 20, otherwise the minimum age is 18.
• for copiloting: no driving licence is required, however minors must be capable of travelling in a car without needing a booster cushion. As our Formula cars are single-seaters, it is not possible to enjoy them as a copilot.
• agree to sign a commitment to safe, controlled driving at the circuit.
• for our Formula driving experiencies, you must have a maximum weight of 120kg, and a maximum height of 1.90m.

Laps

For track driving, experiences consisting of one lap per car will not pass the finishing line. Experiences consisting of 2 laps per car will pass the finishing line once per vehicle, and so on with each successive lap.

No damage deposit payment is required, since any driving will be completed with a professional driver sat alongside as copilot, except in the case of the Formula driving, where the participant will follow an instructor driving a high-performance pace car.

It's important to bear in mind that the aim of this experience is not to race the vehicles, but to enjoy the unique characteristics of legendary sports cars in a safe driving environment.

Insurance

Public liability insurance is included.

Clothing

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and flat shoes for the experience.
