The Perranporth Airfield test that could settle a petrolhead argument

Britain, America or Japan? Ask a room full of car fans which country builds the best performance cars and you could be there all night.

A new set of driving experiences at Perranporth Airfield wants to hand that question to the steering wheel instead.

Three new Triple Performance Car Driving Experiences, now available to book through TrackDays.co.uk, put some of the best cars from each country on track at the Cornish airfield. Each experience is priced from £79.

The British line-up

Homegrown motors in the Triple British Performance Car Driving Experience include the Aston Martin DB11, McLaren 720S, Ariel Atom and Lotus Evora 400.

Imran Malek, corporate sales manager at TrackDays.co.uk, said: “We’ll try and remain neutral in this motoring debate, which can only really be settled by getting behind the wheel of these incredible cars.

“Whatever you decide, each experience lets participants experience the sheer power, precision and speed that has made these cars among the best from their respective country.”

American muscle

Stateside muscle cars in the Triple American Performance Car Driving Experience include the Ford Shelby GT, Dodge Charger and Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, among others.

Japan’s contenders

Japan is represented in the Triple Japanese Performance Car Driving Experience by the Nissan GT-R Nismo, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X and Subaru Impreza WRX STI, plus more.

Imran added: “Japan has its JDM performance cars, the US has its muscle cars and Britain has its iconic performance cars. All of them provide a thrilling driving experience and are waiting to be enjoyed.”

How each experience works

All three follow the same format. After a safety briefing, drivers take three cars out for three miles each, with a qualified expert instructor alongside.

The instructor passes on guidance and tips along the way to help make the most of the time on track.
