V8 Race Cars Platinum Phillip Island, SPECIAL EVENT - Phillip Island Circuit
|
Then it's time to let loose your inner revhead during a session of real life V8 driving action. Each driver does 2 driving sessions, starting with five laps behind the wheel of their V8 Commodore or Monaro around the Grand Prix Circuit of Phillip Island Circuit. Pull over and your instructor will feed back to you, offering personalised hints and tips to make sure you get the most from your drive. Then with your confidence on high, you'll buckle up behind the wheel for a further 7 drive laps in the car.
Just when you reckon you can drive a V8 like Mark Skaife, your experienced race driver will take control again for two more seriously quick V8 hot laps that you're not likely to forget for a very long time!
