Your on-track experience starts by getting fitted with race boots and helmet, then into our Famil V8 car for an introduction lap around the circuit with one of our instructors talking you around the track while you're in the passenger seat.
This will give you an idea of what to expect and what you've gotten yourself in for!!!
As a bonus you can take a spectator along for the ride so they can experience the thrill of being on a racetrack.
Now it's time for you to take the wheel!!
Choose to drive either a Ford or Holden V8 Race car and experience the stunning performance of these cars as you and your instructor lap the circuit at speeds you never thought possible for you to drive.
Or Get strapped into the Formula Challenge Single Seater, this is an experience all on it's own!! As you feel the engine burst into life only inches behind you, your heart starts to race, clutch in and engage first gear using the F1-style push buttons or paddle shift on the steering wheel, ease off the clutch and your away. You'll be surprised at how easy they are to drive but how fast they are as you make your way onto the track.
With your laps complete but your heart still racing, you head back to the pitlane where you receive a certificate complete with your fastest laptime as proof that it wasn't just a dream.
