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.

My boys (19 and 20) and I all agreed that it was excellent value for money, and we couldn't fault one aspect of the day. The fantastic staff, lots of smiles and good-natured humour, and the adrenalin rush made it a trip to remember. As a 62 year old Baptist Minister, I am blessed to be able to still live life to the full.

Our experience with Adrenalin was excellent! My partner loved the v8 drive and ride in Calder Park Melbourne. His first words when he got out of the car..."THAT was worth every cent!" The Adrenalin staff were extremely helpful, and I'm looking forward to booking my next adventure with them. Thanks for a smooth, awesome experience!
