So Wanna Drive a Fucking Tank Today?

Feeling bored lately? Want to unleash your inner redneck? look no further!! DriveATank.com can give you your destruction fix.

Your day might look like this:





Introduction, Safety & Knowledge
The civilian's tank driving adventure is an approximately 4-5 hour hands on military vehicle historical experince. Your time with us includes an introduction to armored vehicles and safety, how they were used, and who used them. 
 Hands on Tour and Photo Op A tour of our storage, maintenance and restoration facility is also included to give you an in depth view of our armored vehicle collection. You will see the inner workings and mechanical wonders of these amazing vehicles.
 Transportation and Battlefield Directions 

Once we are ready to actually start driving the tanks, we transport you down to our Battlefield Arena, about a 1/4 mile away, in our classic 5 Ton 16 passenger transportation vehicle.
      

Here at the battlefield you will prepare yourself and recieve actual Hands-On Driver's Training. Then we put you in and see how good you are at taking the controls in the driver's seat!

The Tanks
The first vehicle that will test your tank driving skills will be the FV 433 Abbott. The 105mm gun barrel points you in a forward position to complete your first course run. For this exercise, the tanker’s hatch will be open, giving you excellent view of your surroundings and your mission. All tank packages include this vehicle. 

Next, we test you to see if you have what it takes to drive a tank in a “combat” type situation. You will attempt to navigate the speedy FV432 APC (Armored Personnel Carrier) through the course with the driver’s hatch closed, using nothing more than the periscope to navigate, just like a seasoned tanker in enemy territory.  Only 4 Star packages include this vehicle.
  CAR CRUSHING TIME
Do you have the desire for even more tank adventure? 
Then our car crush package is for YOU!  Under your navigation, the 120,000 pound Chieftain Main Battle Tank (affectionately named "Larry") drives over a car!
Test Fire of a Historic Machine Gun
Included in your DRIVE adventure is the chance to test fire some of our historic firearms in our adjacent indoor shooting range! 3-Star Package includes one gun, 4-Star package includes 3 guns, guns subject to availability. We round out the day with some awesome rounds of ammunition. More guns and ammunition available to rent and fire for an additional fee.
