Main description

Your V8 race car drive day begins as you register at 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!

Rated 5 out of 5 by It was a great experience The experience was great. The racing driver who guided me around the track was excellent and gave me the confidence to start using the car to its full potential. I will be doing it again. 16 March 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Awesome!! my dad absolutly loved his 50th birthday gift he said it was the best thing anyone could have given him. Had an awesome experience with some awesome people the staff were lovely and helpful with anything he asked, it was an all round great.. thankyou :) 7 March 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Yeah, good ... but ... As this was a gift, I wanted to simply enjoy the experience ... however, It felt a little bit rushed. Especially once in the car, no chance to go through the H-pattern before driving out, instead figuring out on the fly. Also one thing that bugged me was the up-selling environment. Sure it was good to have the options of more laps and souvenirs, but to be given a spiel whilst coming into the pits seemed a bit too much ... I'd much prefer to de-brief with the instructor for feedback and a pat on the back. Overall, it was a great chance to try out a caged-car w/slicks on a racetrack and good value for money. 6 March 2013
