I was bought this driving experience by my sister for Xmas. I went to the Three Sisters Race Circuit, Wigan yesterday (04/05/13) it was fantastic, great day out. Fantastic! Couldn't Fault a thing. Instructors 10 out of 10. staff were excellent I have never driven anything that accelerates so fast. "The Ariel Atom is probably the fastest road car on the planet! This is a truly remarkable driving experience that will create a memory for life." (read more)

“Double Supercar Experience”

Written on: 09/06/2012 by witness160

Upon arrival we were greeted with friendly reception staff and a thorough and light hearted induction to the circuit but that where the good new ends unfortunately. This track is certainly not suited to super-cars at all and should be used for karts only, tight twisty and not much fun even in an Ariel atom. Admittedly it was wet but I found the instructor rude, My 1st time in the car so no prior experience, and on the back straight I brought the throttle in as gently as I could for the 1st...

“I was expecting better”

Written on: 20/05/2012 by davebnly (4 reviews written)

I was bought a triple supercar drive as a gift for a birthday and booked to drive Ferrari 360, Porsche 996 and Ariel Atom. I'll start with the good points regarding the circuit. The cars were well maintained and clean and the reception/check-in/briefing staff were excellent. I was rather annoyed with the organisation of the whole thing as with no experience of this particular track whatsoever, I was put straight into the hardest car to drive (Ariel Atom) after specifically asking when I...

“Should have been cancelled - THE SNOW WAS FORECAST”

Written on: 06/02/2012 by md_sparky (1 review written)

My partner and i bought my stepsons a supercar experience as a Christmas present, the 2 of them were looking forward to it and although we originally planned to go to Rockingham as it is close to our home in Lincolnshire, they were both keen to use the gift and decided to go to 3 sisters (as there is a 6 month expiry) and one of them is in the forces and is due to go to Afganistan in 2 weeks for 5 months. The event weather line on the morning was saying the event was still on, even although... (read more)

“FANTASTIC DAY !”

Written on: 25/01/2012 by Juliec1963

What a fabulous circuit, well maintained, well manned and all vehicles were in a superb condition. All staff could do no more us from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Good choice of vehicles to drive, a good all round day and I would highly recommend to ANYBODY! We took my daughter and her friend for the day, they drove a Mini Cooper and a Lamborghini, they loved it! Thank You from Julie Clarey (read more)

So true, experienced the same today. The karts are the worst I have ever driven. The reliability and condition varied from poor to extremley poor. I will never go to this track again for a corporate event! I will also try and defer other people from visiting this track as much as possible. How can you race fairly when the karts have peformance differences of 40% or more?!?! They were also unsafe. A terrible experience and a reputation ruined.

“karting”

Written on: 06/12/2011

poorly kept karts that where all different in performance made for a disappointing experience, this was made worse by the bad customer service without any care for the people whom had paid £38. would definitely not go again! (read more)

Written on: 14/06/2010 by epicrh (1 review written)

Celebrating my birthday my Son and I arranged for a 'driving experience' each in a Lamborghini driving round the circuit at Three Sisters. To be fair to the organisers our visit was organised and safe - also we got a discount for booking by phone 'on the day'. We were briefed and instructed and driving the car was a good experience - we enjoyed the event. However I have to say that what really spoiled the whole day was afterwards when we went to get pictures of us driving the car. (The... (read more)

Two days after posting this review ( which I copied to The Racing School at Three Sisters ) I received a letter enclosing a CD with picture images of our drive(s) This had been provided by the photographers after a conversation with the Racing School Chief Instructor. Clearly they take notice of feedback and I have thanked them for this follow up and the CD.

That's all very interesting, but what about the driving? Is that any good?

Why do you say the Three Sisters Circuit is in Wigan, when it clearly isn't.
It's in Ashton in Makerfield.

My parents bought me a Racecar super trial + Gold for my 18th Birthday present. I went to the Three Sisters Race Circuit, Wigan yesterday (07/08/05) it was fantastic, great day out. You get taken out in an MG ZR 160bhp, to see what the track looks like etc, then you get a briefing, then you go to the pits, they kit you out with a helmet and suit. Then you go off and get in an MG ZR, go for 7 laps of the track while the instructor tells you the routes to take etc, then he does an assessment... (read more)

Written on: 14/07/2005 by babrahams (130 reviews written)

I booked the Three Sisters Race Circuit for my husband's 30th birthday. I booked the 1/2 day racing in the Formula Fords.

When we got there everyone was briefed and then told to get dressed. Then teams of people were taken round the track several times by professional racing drivers in the new MGs. Once everyone was familiar with the track, then with the prof driver beside them, each member of the team was given a chance to drive round and get familiar with the track from a driving...

What a fantastic place and such lovely staff. I recently took a group of special needs students 16-19 years, from a school in Oswaldtwistle. BSM provided us with an automatic car and a great instructor for a very small fee and the lady at 3 sisters gave us the track time for nothing, so enabling these young people, most of whom will never drive a car again, to at least have a taste of what it is like behind the wheel of a real car. Many, many thanks
