This is the triathlon of massive vehicles. After your briefing, you'll start off at the wheel of a hi-view jeep to warm up, before taking a British-spec monster truck over some tough, purpose-built terrain. You'll also get to experience a deliberate sideways roll-over in a 4×4 buggy. Then it's the bit you've been waiting for - you'll need a stepladder to get into the cab of the full-spec, 66-inch terra-tyred American monster truck. When you're ready, you'll drive this amazing vehicle over the top of two saloon cars (they'll be well and truly wrecked). Steering this 7.5 litre truck on a mission of destruction is a pure adrenaline rush. You'll get a laminated certificate, with a photo of the American monster, as a memento.

Take the wheel of five very different off-road activities, with a little help from your personal instructor. Driving experience is definitely not essential, so adults - get ready to be upstaged by the youngsters. After a safety briefing you'll all have a go at driving the 'dizzymobile'. This crazy vehicle has two independently-steered axles and two steering wheels (think tapping your head and rubbing your tummy and you'll be half way there). Good teamwork between the two drivers is the only way you'll make it through a tight, twisty coned course. Then (depending on your age) either ride or drive a Daihatsu on the 4×4 jungle run. Next comes the blindfold driving in the Korean Kia jeep, where you'll all take turns at driving and navigating, followed by the quad course. Finally everybody takes part in time trials in rally karts. Will experience or adaptability be the key? Find out as a family and have a lot of laughs along the way.

One thing is guaranteed of this experience - there is no way you'll hear the all too familiar whinge from the back seat of 'Are we there yet?' Quite the opposite in fact, as this family off-road adventure will be filled with fun, excitement and maybe even a few stomach-churning moments for you and your two passengers. Begin with an in-car safety briefing before a demonstration lap with your instructor driving (by your side every step of the way to educate and encourage). Then take the wheel of the Land Rover Defender, which will do everything you ask of it, and more. Silverstone's challenging purpose-built off-road course combines steep gradients, big drops and deep water, demanding your full attention as you navigate a tricky obstacle course. You might be going slower than walking pace at times, but precision handling and rock solid nerves are definitely required. Your experience concludes with a debrief after the three of you stumble out of the vehicle onto terra firma.

Contrary to what some people seem to think, sports cars were not designed to sit on the owner's driveway to make the neighbours envious. They were designed to be driven. Fast.

After a full safety briefing, and assisted by expert instructors, you'll drive a Ferrari 360, Porsche 911, Lotus Exige and Land Rover. You can also have a go at the 'single-seater shootout', try rally driving, tackle an auto test in a Caterham 7 and Peugeot 206 GTI or Ford Fiesta (unleash your inner boy racer!) and climb aboard the ride quads. All track driving takes place around Silverstone's world-famous Grand Prix circuit. You'll also get first-class hospitality all day in the BRDC Clubhouse (known as the ultra exclusive home of the best drivers in the world) including breakfast, lunch and a presentation pack.
