How does the activity run?
-
You will receive 2 rebel buggies for the session. We offer practice and then timed competition. We don't run head to head races as the equipment is built to be bigger and faster than other vehicles used at other centres. We want you to experience the drive, if you want grand prix, go go-karting instead!
-
What is the minimum/maximum group size?
-
On Saturday we operate a minimum group size of 6. up to a maximum team size of 12 people, if your group size is larger than this you will be split over 2 or more tracks or you will be provided with more time. If you have a group of less than 6 people we suggest you call in the week running up to the day you would like to come, as we may have some space we can offer you, in this case we reserve the right to mix you with another party, alternatively you can pay for 6 people.
-
What day can i book, are you only open at weekends?
-
Predominately we are open on Saturday for group bookings, but do open during the week. Any booking would be subject to availability and group size. Please call to discuss options.
-
How long does the session last?
-
Each activity runs for 1 hour in Bristol. If you just book rebel buggies that will last for one hour. If your group size is over 12 we will either split you into 2 teams or more, or provide more time. In certain circumstances such as a small group where your health and safety could be at risk from over confidence, we may reduce this time. Alternatively if you are acting beyond what Max Events, or our instructors deem safe/acceptable, you will be asked to leave the activity. No refunds will apply for misuse of equipment.
-
How long will I be on site?
-
This is dependant on the package booked but we ask that you arrive half an hour prior to the start of your activities, and you will need at least 15 minutes from when the activities have finished to getting in your car.
-
Minimum age
-
No driving license is required but drivers must be 18 and over.
-
Maximum weight and height
-
The buggies have plenty of power but if you're over 20 stone it can be a squeeze to get in and out. It can depend on your build but 20stone is really the limit. Maximum height for a comfortbale drive is 6ft6.
-
Am I insured?
-
Max Events carries £5 million public liability insurance. This covers us and you in the event of our negligence. You are provided with all instruction necessary to complete the activity safely, if you operate any equipment beyond your ability or the boundaries that we provide you will not be covered, it does not cover you for acts of stupidity or if an incident arises beyond our control.
-
Can we operate in any weather?
-
Unfortunately we cannot control the weather. In most cases we work very hard to ensure your event runs smoothly and with the required activities in your booking. If we feel we have a health and safety issue we would try and make contact in the week prior to your arrival and offer some alternative suggestions. In extreme circumstances on the day we may have to offer an alternative activity which carries an equal or greater value.
-
Will I get dirty / Do you provide overalls?
-
This is dependant on the weather. Hot and sunny you will get dusty, wet and you will get muddy. We do not provide overalls for each individual person, we do have a range of overalls for sale on the day, prices start at £2.00 and in most cases this is enough to keep you relatively clean.
-
Do you provide gloves?
-
No but if you require we may have some in stock to purchase.
-
Do I need specific footwear?
-
Either trainers or walking boots are a must. You must wear shoes that will not fall off, and that cover the whole foot, i.e no flip flops.
-
Can I bring my own helmet?
-
Yes if it conforms to European standard.
-
Do I have to wear a helmet?
-
Yes in all circumstances to comply with our insurance helmets are compulsory.
-
Can I wear fancy dress?
-
Yes, so long as it does not have the potential to be caught in any moving parts, does not impair vision, means you are still wearing the correct footwear and can wear a helmet.
-
Do you provide any safety equipment?
- Yes we provide all necessary safety equipment for each activity, as outlined by our insurance obligations.
