There comes a time in everybody’s life when all they really want for Christmas is their very own tank! Whether it’s a long held boyhood fantasy or just a power crazed whim, tank driving activity days are now available, right here on civvie-street. No questions asked! Boy’s toys don’t come any bigger than this. This is quite literally tons of fun; the absolute acme of off road indulgence. This is the big gift for thrill seekers, action enthusiasts, stay-at-home ‘squaddies’ and more. Just remember – a tank is not just for Christmas!
Tank driving experiences are actually available from February through to October. Book up now and you’ll have a whole ten months or so in which to think about playing at action man! You decide; because this is one experience where you are most definitely in charge – let’s face it, nobody but nobody is going to dare mess with you!
On the big day you’ll be whisked away in a big vehicle; probably a troop carrier, then divided into your teams; pepped up and prepped for the activities ahead. You don’t have to earn your pips to take your tank on a rampage, but you might have to show some serious respect to your instructors; many of whom are combat veterans from the Gulf War and Falklands campaigns. They’ll tell you all you need to know about armoured vehicular activity and then they’ll put you in command!
Take your pick: Armoured Personnel Carrier, Abbot Gun Tank or Chieftain; all-powerful and practically invulnerable; you’ll be in the hot seat for the experience of a lifetime. Whatever happens, you’re guaranteed to gain a newfound respect for the everyday operators of these armoured juggernauts.
Tank driving experience days cater for all sorts of customers: boys and their toys, corporate customers, assertiveness trainers and morale boosters; there really isn’t any action activity that isn’t better with a tank! Campaigns for everyone and fun for all. Get the big guns out for your stag weekend, boys. Kick up a desert storm before you storm the clubs. But remember this is one activity that is definitely a his and hers free- for-all! Compete against all comers for the best driver awards – just bear in mind this is one instance where the women nearly always come out on top; so get ready to put any long held convictions about women drivers to the test!
The best drivers might be invited to face off with a family saloon; there’s only ever going to be one winner of that contest! Just don’t get carried away in the car park afterwards. And, most importantly, do try to remember that your family car just can’t go where your armoured vehicle can.
Nothing generates team spirit quite like a tank! What could unite your team better than rescuing their kidnapped boss from the evils of their corporate enemies – with the aid of their very own armoured all terrain vehicle, of course. You just have to sit tight, and hope that they’re not off having too much fun to come and rescue you!
Stout footwear is recommended for all you would be campaigners. Protective head gear and army fatigues will be issued as and when appropriate. You might need it. These babies can take you places your quad will fear to tread! But no matter what the terrain, you’ll be armoured up to the nines, inside and out.
All the benefits of the army life with none of the drawbacks. No names, no pack drill, no end to the fun. By the time you’ve done your tour of duty, you’ll have earned your certificate of achievement. So if you’re planning a bash; you can’t beat the tank driving experience for all terrain thrills and spills. It’s the big gift. So go ahead: think big; think tank!
