Secretly, we all think we can top BBC Top Gear's leader board and now is your chance to prove it by taking part in one of the most exciting motorsport challenges around. After individual coaching from your very own Speed Masters and plenty of practice laps, you will be ready to push your 'reasonably priced car' to the limit through lightning fast chicanes and down pure-power straights. With two sessions racing against the clock in race-modified road cars fitted with full race-spec safety gear, nerve, skill and sheer determination are required to get the fastest lap time possible. Every driver gets a place on the leader board, and the five top drivers by November 30th 2011 will be invited back to compete for the coveted first place trophy and a £1000 prize!

Availability

Weekend dates will be held approximately three times a year from April to November during 2011.
