Zapcat activity experiences and events can be purchased throughout the year as co-pilot or pilot & co-pilot instruction from Vortex Events; very few get the chance to co-pilot at a Zapcat Racing National Championship event, in a race boat, at a race venue with one of the championship competitors!

Think of it like going for a lap or two with a British Touring Car competitor before they line up on the grid or co-driving with one of the World Rally Championship drivers on a Welsh Forest stage in the middle of the WRC Great Britain Rally. 

Putting a value on that type of experience is very difficult to do and would normally involve at least three zeros!

Every race venue is different and has its own unique characteristics and conditions, whether it is a dock, river and beach resort or surf venue.  Zapcat racing is exhilarating, physical and fun, perfect for thrill seekers and extreme sports enthusiasts usually described in one word as ‘Awesome’!

At many motorsport events (we have been to quite a few), corporate hospitality usually involves good catering lots of drinks, meet the teams, business card exchanges and may be have a reasonable view of the event but the best coverage is still on a plasma screen in a marquee or bar.

EXPERIENTIAL EXTREME ENTERTAINMENT - What is Experiential Entertainment?  

•    You will have a Zapcat experience, being driven by one the race championship pilots!
•    You can sit back, relax & watch the Championship racing from the VIP area
•    Or get your feet wet at the waters edge
•    Mix it with the teams and their supporters and cheer on the local competitors
•    Join the teams and officials at the Friday & Saturday night receptions & parties

So why Extreme?

Zapcat Racing is an extreme sport and racing can take place in breaking surf or on very tight intricate flat water courses.  Our Zapcat experiences are run by pilots who deliver Zapcat events on a weekly basis and know how to deliver maximum enjoyment with maximum safety, and we make sure you don’t stray on to the race course during a heat!

Your clients, suppliers or staff will co-pilot race boats at a race venue in the same conditions and in the same area that championship teams compete in.

We supply everyone with top of the range drysuits so no matter the weather you will stay warm and dry.
