Perfect for fans of V8's, Bathurst, Carrera Cup or motorsports in general, driving an F1-style single-seater Formula Ford racing car is unlike anything else. You're strapped into the open cockpit, the steering wheel in front of you and the gearstick on your right. You're only a couple of inches off the ground and you'll know it; you can feel every bump and vibration and you'll have to fight not to oversteer, as your super-responsive car reacts to every tiny adjustment you make.

We've convinced a genuine Formula Ford Racing Team to let you drive their competition-prepared Formula Ford Spirit or VD race cars at full pelt around the Wakefield Park Circuit. This is driving at its limits, as done by the pros; just you and the car going at speeds significantly faster than a Porsche 911.

Real, unmodified racing cars, used in the Formula Ford championship!

One of the most challenging and thrilling experiences I’ve had. Being squeezed into the tiny race seat and only centimeters from the ground really added to the excitement. The instructor was great and gave me the confidence to go faster with every lap. Would definitely go back for more!
