Drive a V8 supercar
  • You drive a V8 Race Car for 6 laps AND ride for 3 laps
  • 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
  • Convenient weekend dates

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 track-prepared V8 six-speed Commodore or Monaro around South Australia's legendary V8 race track, Mallala Motorsport Park.

The V8 drive day begins with a briefing conducted by experienced race drivers. During practical observation laps of the circuit, 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 six laps behind the wheel of their 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 three more seriously quick V8 hot laps that you're not likely to forget for a very long time.

Had a fantastic time,. You couldn't wipe the smile off my face. A big THANKS to everyone there! :-)

A magnificent experience. After completing the drive, and feeling pretty confident by then, getting into the car with Ben at the wheel, made me appreciate the skill posessed, the hard work involved and the enormous gap between professional drivers and the average punter. Hats off to you all.
