Driving events at Porsche Leipzig are multifaceted. In addition to the offer of guided driving under the guidance of an instructor, we also offer section trainings to improve the driver's skills and "taxi rides / hot laps" (passengers sit beside a motor sport professional). As an incentives competitions can also be integrated into the on and off-road events.

During a taxi ride - also known as hot laps-the participant sits in the passenger seat. At the wheel is a Porsche driving instructor who drives the vehicle around the Porsche on-road circuit.

During guided driving the participants follow the instructor along the idea racing line and are in radio contact with him. The instructor explains the vehicles, the track, the ideal racing line, and sets the pace for the participants.

In section training, participants practice different concepts in small groups, for example correct steering and braking or avoidance of wet roads.

Children who are 12 years or older and who are at least 150 cm tall, are allowed to participate in the driving events.

Unfortunately, this is not possible. We are contractually bound to our own caterers. This is a subsidiary of Porsche AG. For you, this means: The Porsche standard is present in all areas.
