Radical Driving Experiences, the first of a wide range of opportunities that will be available to enjoy the thrill of lapping Bushy Park Barbados, are already under way. These include passenger rides in a Suzuki-powered Radical SR3 with an experienced race driver, the chance to drive the two-seater open-topped sports car with an instructor in the passenger seat and, once you have reached the necessary criteria, the chance to lap the circuit ‘flying solo’. If required, catering can be provided during your visit, and you will also receive some mementoes.
