The driver was hospitalised with minor injuries.

The Exotic Driving Experience allows customers to drive exclusive, high-powered cars for a fee of $200 to $400.

Drivers can complete six laps of a track with a professional driving instructor offering advice from the passenger seat.

The Walt Disney world Website says of the attraction: 'Head to Walt Disney World Speedway, choose your exotic supercar and prepare to be floored!'

'Put the pedal to the metal during the Exotic Driving Experience, where you can speed away for 6, 8 or 10 exhilarating laps around our world-class Exotics Course, or let a professional do a 2-lap Thrill Ride.

'Some of the world’s fastest cars by Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Audi and Nissan will be revved and ready for you to see what they can do,' it continues.

The track is operated by Petty Holdings, which has other Exotic Driving Experience attractions at speedways in Atlanta, Daytona Beach, Charlotte, New Jersey, Kansas, New Hampshire and Texas.

In a statement, Petty Holdings said: “On behalf of everyone in the organization, it is with a very heavy heart that we extend our deepest sympathies to those involved in today's tragic accident in Orlando.”

The Exotic Driving Experience, along with its sibling track, the Richard Petty Driving Experience, was slated to close this summer at Disney World for unrelated reasons.
