Availability: At least one Saturday a month from March - October. Weather: The weather shouldn't stop this experience going ahead, but any cancellations are for your own safety. There are covered areas on-site to shelter in if it's wet. Duration: Lasts for around nine hours, including 30 minutes of driving time. Numbers On Day: A maximum of 72 people take part, split into smaller groups of 12, with more vehicles added for more people if necessary. Spectators: A £30 spectator fee (payable on the day) includes lunch and a ride on some of the vehicles. You must let us know spectator numbers in advance (min age 7). Facilities are basic but spectators will be able to watch most of the action. Dress Code: A camo suit and helmet are provided, so there's no need to wear anything special. Bring wellies and gloves (spectators too) - this one is not for the faint-hearted and everyone usually gets pretty muddy! Guidelines: Exit M1 junction 15a and take the A43 towards Silverstone. Around 8 miles past Silverstone (with Greenman Premier Lodge on right), take the B4525 to Helmdon. Spring Farm is 5 miles along this road. Rather than turning into Helmdon Village, continue straight over Helmdon/Brackley crossroads and look out for the RAF sign. Alternatively, from the M40 junction 10, take the A43 through Brackley. Turn left onto the B4525 and follow directions as above. Restrictions: Minimum age is 13. Minimum height is 5'2''. Participants need to be reasonably fit to take part. No previous driving experience is required. Other Info: Please note, the exact vehicles driven on the day may be subject to change, but each and every one of them packs a serious punch!

Get kitted out in a camouflage suit and helmet and given a full safety briefing upon arrival. Drive a Russian Grozdilka tank, a Lance Missile carrier, an FV 432 armoured personnel carrier and a Supacat during this truly unique gift experience. The best driver gets to crush a car with a 56 ton Chieftain tank at the end of the day! Also, spend an hour in the armoury, learn how to fire a range of classic weapons like mortars and muskets and go on an SAS woodland patrol.
