V8 Race Car Driving Experience - 8 Laps

What is the Experience?

Experience is an exhilarating V8 race car driving event where you actually get to DRIVE a V8 race car on a championship race track. Be part of Australia’s premier race car driving experience and get your adrenalin pumping for 8 laps behind the wheel of a V8 race car!

Your V8 race car drive day begins as you register at our reception prior to your pre-drive tuition. This will prepare you for driving a race prepared V8 race car with information on handling the car, cornering, braking and the track map. You are then ushered to pit lane and fitted with your own race suit and helmet.

Prior to your drive, you'll be asked whether you would prefer an automatic or manual, Ford or Holden to drive! You are then strapped in behind the wheel, introduced to your personal in-car coach and off you go for your drive of a lifetime! Through an intercom system built into the helmets, your in-car coach will encourage you through your drive with advice on gear changes and brake points so that you can drive fast and safely. While not a race, there are no limits on speed and overtaking is common during this thrilling drive experience!

You can choose to purchase an In-Car DVD and/or Super Photo Souvenir on the day for $49 each.
