Drive a V8 supercar
  • Most powerful 450hp 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

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.

The facility has excellent facilities and great viewing areas. Complimentary tea and coffee will be supplied. Light meals can be purchased on the day through the Barbagello canteen facilities on our track days.

The instructor I had with my adventure; Karl Reindler was very communicative, extremely knowledgeable, and very relaxed and friendly. His input along with the rest of the staff made this day extremely enjoyable.
