Drive a V8 supercar
  • You drive a V8 Race Car for 8 laps
  • Most powerful 450 hp V8 race cars available to drive in Australia!
  • Real race car driver/instructors in the car with you
  • Supercar 6-pot brakes, Carrera Cup slicks, Bilstein suspension and Racing gearbox handles like a real V8 Supercar

Feel the excitement and g-force of V8 performance racing with Australia’s premier V8 experience team for 8 laps at Eastern Creek Raceway. Driving in an anti-clockwise direction, this track delivers a challenging mix of long straights, tight and tricky corners, rising curves, hills and flats. Be prepared to take it to the max with a no limit drive often reaching 200 kph!

Your V8 race car drive day begins with a registration, followed by on-track observation laps with an instructor at the wheel covering apexes, braking points and overtaking procedure (though it's not a race, overtaking is common - and very exciting!). Then it's off to the pit lane, where you're fitted out with racing overalls and helmet.

You are then strapped in behind the wheel and you're off! Your personal instructor will coach you through the intercom to make sure you go as fast as you can, as safely as you can on the 8 lap session.

To get the most out of your time at the track, you'll be driving on the short course to make learning the corners, apex and braking points a great deal faster. This means you spend your time concentrating on enjoying driving these powerful beasts, rather than learning the circuit. 

The heated and air-conditioned VIP suite which doubles as reception, with a balcony that overlooks the start/finish line provides the perfect viewing area for spectators on the day. Or get right into the pit, feel the noise and smell the fumes up close and personal. Complimentary tea and coffee will be available at the reception on the day and a canteen will be open on all race days for the purchase of light meals.

Ben Neilson! What a great tutor! I learnt so much from him, and I could experience my gain in lap times due to this. All while enjoying. Ben's Hot Laps were about *really* showing me; and he picked up on where I wanted to learn and made sure I was aware that 'this' was where I could improve. What a great bloke! What a great experience - Thank you Adrenalin and Fasttrack Racing. I'm coming back.

The customer service staff were very helpful when I upgraded my original gift which was just a passenger, again, very helpful when I had to change dates. On the track, the briefing was good and leaves you under no illusions about what you are getting into! Would love to do it again!

It was just like sex, wish it lasted longer, 4 hours went way to quick. PS: got stuck in the F3 traffic jam for 6.5hrs on the way home, so i couldnt do 100 MPH down the freeway which pleased my wife & daughters, now that i`m a race car driver!!! :)
