Do Something Different... Drive A Tank!

So, you have made it this far, now it is time to take the controls of the steel soldiers!

The civilian's tank driving adventure is an approximately 3 to 4 hour, hands on military vehicle historical experience.

The Adventure

Your time with us includes an introduction to armored vehicles, how they were used and who used them. A tour of our storage, maintenance and restoration facility is also included to give you an in depth view of our armored vehicle collection. You will see the inner workings and mechanical wonders of these amazing vehicles.

Who would want to drive a tank?

Couples, families, veterans, bachelor & bachelorette parties, birthdays, anniverasries, corporate team-building, and anyone looking for a fun and memorable experience!

Is it safe?

Yes. We have installed dual controls similar to driver’s education cars, and we have a “kill switch” installed on the vehicle. The instructor stays with you during your drive experience. What could be safer than being inside an armored vehicle?

Discover the excitement of the Tank Driving Adventure!

Drive the FV-433 Abbot

FV-433 Abbot

Once you have sufficient mechanical knowledge and a brief history of the vehicles, it is out to the driving area.

Here you will take the controls of the two tanks. The first vehicle that will test your tank driving skills will be the FV-433 Abbott. The 105mm gun barrel points you in a forward position to complete your first course run. For this exercise, the tanker's hatch will be open, giving you excellent view of your surroundings and your mission.

Drive the FV432-APC

Armored Personnel Carrier

Next, we test you to see if you have what it takes to drive a tank in a "combat" type situation. You will attempt to navigate the speedy FV432 APC (Armored Personnel Carrier) through the course with the driver's hatch closed, using nothing more than the periscope to navigate, just like a seasoned tanker in enemy territory.

This unique experience is offered by appointment for $499.00 per each driver. Group discounts available - Contact Us for details. Do something different - Drive A Tank - The fun way to go green!
