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

Nothing shakes the body like the roar of a V8 race car, and nothing stirs the soul more than a session of hot laps in a V8 six-speed Commodore or Monaro around Melbourne's legendary V8 race track, Calder Park.

The Calder Park V8 drive day begins with a briefing conducted by experienced race drivers. During practical on-track observation laps, your driver will demonstrate techniques on cornering, apexes and exiting, efficient braking and acceleration, steering, gear changes and general car control. Safety and track awareness will also be discussed. There's plenty of time to ask questions so you'll feel completely comfortable before putting V8 race car theory into practice. 

Then it's time to let loose your inner revhead during a session of real life V8 driving action. Each driver does their driving session behind the wheel of a fully race-prepared V8 Commodore or Monaro. Then, just when you reckon you can drive a V8 like Mark Skaife, your experienced race driver will take control again for a session of seriously quick V8 hot laps that you're not likely to forget for a very long time.
