The car: Formule Renault

The Formule Renault car will let you experience sensations close to those of a Formula 1 driver. Its 130hp 4-cylinder engine delivers performance on a par with the best GT cars. It accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in 5.1 seconds and reaches a top speed of 220km/h. It weighs 450kg.

Circuit : Grand Roussillon (66)

Located 15 km from Perpignan and 55 km from Narbonne, the Grand Circuit du Roussillon is the only FFSA-approved "Auto" circuit in the Pyrénées Orientales, Aude and Ariège departments. With a length of 1600 m, it's the technical circuit par excellence, allowing you to test all your car's acceleration and braking capacities. On this track, one bend follows another, allowing you to fully experience the sensations of sports driving on a circuit. The circuit site is equipped with a 50 m2 room for welcoming and briefing trainees, has a fast-food restaurant on site, and above all offers accompanying persons the chance to see almost the entire track from the terrace, so they can enjoy the show to the full!
