Powerturn buggies at the Whacky Sports Company

Another variation on the thrilling off-road buggy driving theme, Powerturn buggies have the added fun of coming without a steering wheel.

Steering the buggies is achieved using two levers, which control two engines one controls the left engine and one controls the right, so after a bit of practice you'd think they were pretty straightforward.

However, unlike the other buggy driving sports available out there, these beasts are designed so that the front wheels come up into a wheelie every time you accelerate, giving you an extra test to your driving skills when you're thundering around the course.

Competitors race against each other to complete the twists and turns of the course in the fastest possible time and have plenty of exciting and very silly fun in the process.

This one is ideal for a group visit, whether it's a stag or hen party or a corporate event and can be combined with some of the many other activities offered by the centre, including quad biking, Honda pilots driving, team building activities, blindfolded driving, falconry and clay pigeon shooting.
