Feel the excitement and g-force of V8 performance racing with Australia’s premier V8 experience team for 6 laps at Symmons Plains Raceway. This track delivers a challenging mix of long straights and sweeping corners. Be prepared to take it to the max with a no limit drive often reaching 200km/hour!

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 6 lap session.

Spectators are welcome on the day, they will have access to pitt lane to 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.
