Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was my second visit to RSI and just like the last time we were looked after from start to finish. The entire staff from the front desk to the driver instructors are all amazing, helpful and most of all great craic altogether.

While I and my friends contended with each other for the fastest lap times we were impressed by the 14 year old young lads putting in exceptional laps on their first time out driving anywhere. The instructors are great and know what they are talking about; professional and fun!

Definitely a great place for all the family on a day out not just for 'you and your mates'. I would definitely recommend this as a great day out!

I'm still grinning two days later...

Cannot recommend RSI highly enough. From we were met at the door by two girls, they were very welcoming and good craic but at the same time very professional, you knew this was going to be a great day. Well organised and the navigators/instructors made the day, cannot speak highly enough of them. They let you fully experience the power and control of top class rally cars and were great craic and friendly. Lunch was great and went down a treat. During the current COVID crisis, everything was done ensuring proper guidelines but the experience was not compromised in any way. A credit to all staff. The only down side is that we all left wanting more..... will def be back soon. Not just for rally enthusiasts as none of us were, all round one of the best days out ever.
Thank you

Great value for money, this is an amazing experience for those interested in motorsport or just for some fun.
All the staff and instructors are very warm and welcoming. The facilities are very good clean and tidy changing area and the lunch provided was excellent.
As for the driving, all the different instructors really push you and if you make a mistake they have a friendly laugh in the intercom and encourage you to go just as hard again.
I’ve done other driving experiences before, this has to be one of my favourite for, value for money and time behind the wheel.
This is a must do experience and I’d encourage anyone looking for something different to give it a try.

Brilliant experience. My kids (10 & 12) did the Junior Rally Experience and absolutely loved it. The instructor was fantastic with them, they had loads of time in the car and were able to get a decent handle on things by the time it came to their later laps. Personally i have very little interest in rallying and rallying driving but after seeing the place, the cars and the other drivers, i think we might be back!!

Without a doubt the best experience of my son’s life and the first time for him to drive a car. David is an absolute gentleman, he was so welcoming and kind. The staff were really friendly and encouraging. All I can say is if you haven’t been here before, you need to make plans to visit. You will make memories to last a lifetime. They allow drivers from age 10 to try the junior rally experience, not sure whose adrenaline was pumping more but we thoroughly enjoyed every minute and can’t wait to go back. I’ll be telling everyone about the place. Top class facility.

Top class all-round: friendly, efficient admin staff couldn't have been more helpful and put us at our ease. Instructors Brendan and Francie were knowledgeable, clear and the best craic too! A great range of cars and an interesting track meant the whole experience was exciting and totally unforgettable. The viewing gallery kept things interesting when you weren't actually on track. Tasty lunch too. Would visit again in a heartbeat!

This is for all the family ,a day out for everyone
Booked this for my husband and son, they had so much fun, arrived at 11.30am and left at 4pm. So much cars to choose from, my grandson got a spin in one of the cars too made his day.
The staff were brilliant from the girls that get you signed up, to the men who take their life in their hands and get in the cars with you.
Will be booking soon again .
Highly recommended

The track is based way up in Monaghan but this should not put you off - it is well worth the drive . The place is well run and Covid safe. Drivers and instructors wear cloth balaclavas all the time. Additionally there is perspex between driver and instructor. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. It is hard not to get inspired by the enthusiasm of David, Beeny and Seamus ! I did the 7 Car Super Car Rally and it was simply brilliant. Oddly, the 911 and M3 were not the highlights - fast but not as much fun. The Escort and BWM 325i were just so much fun to drive. The highlight had to be the Nomad - definitely one for the bucket list ! Lunch is provided and free refreshments all day. Just stop reading and go and do it !

We found out about RSI while staying at the nearby Castle Leslie estate and opted to give it a try. We had a fantastic day on the track! Most of us had not driven a manual transmission for years (some not at all) and were a bit intimidated at first, but the instructors were incredibly helpful and patient and had us all driving around the track at speed in no time. There were a few younger kids (maybe 12) at the track and they were driving with the rest of us in no time. Even if you're not a motorsports enthusiast, I'm confident you'll get something out of the RSI experience.
