Mondello adds Supercar Experiences to its Christmas List

Mondello Park Driving Experience market leader, Mondello Park, has spiced up its Christmas Gift list with the addition of Ireland's first high speed 'Supercar Experience'.

Starting in spring 2012, the Kildare venue will offer the previously unavailable opportunity to get behind the wheel of a Supercar on a purpose built race track, with six course levels available, designed to suit all budgets. Courses recently went on sale through the Mondello Park web site and Office and are already proving to be a highly popular Christmas Gift.

The Mondello Park Supercar Experience will give drivers the chance to drive a Porsche 911 (996 model) or a Porsche Boxster S, with no speed limits and no traffic to hold them back. Courses range in price from €99 to €299, depending on the car chosen and the number of laps purchased, and will take place on Mondello Park’s most popular circuit variation; the National Track, which is almost two kilometers in length.
Each course will begin with a quick safety briefing before drivers go on track for four laps instruction in a rear wheel drive training car. Following the introductory laps it's time for the real thing, as participants swap into their chosen Porsche for their Supercar Experience.

An instructor is always alongside each driver, guiding and advising them and ready to intervene if and when necessary. Unlike some other Supercar products, drivers will be permitted and encouraged to drive fast on the straights, while their instructor will assist them to drive on the correct line, and at the correct speed, for each of the circuit’s wide variety of bends.

Mondello Park's Motor Racing School, 4x4 Off-Road courses, Advanced Car Control instruction and Hot-Lap experiences, continue to offer drivers a unique mix of adrenaline and driving instruction. The addition of Supercar driving to its already bulging portfolio will now cement Mondello Park's position as the top supplier of driving experiences in Ireland.
