Rated 4 out of 5 by This was a lot of fun Hello RedBalloon, Firstly, the organisation on the day was very good. The step by step process went like clock work. My 6 lap drive was great fun and the instructor was very good however in hind sight I wish he had pushed me to go faster. I could feel myself driving faster with every lap but before I knew it, it was over. My VE commodore felt quick - however it was whisper quiet compared to the other cars. Maybe a louder exhaust would add to the effect. The car in which I experienced my 3 hot laps was "clapped out". I'm sure the coach was wringing its neck but it was slow. Smoke entered the cabin - it was a very tired ford. sounded like a race car, went like a dog. I would rather have quick than loud. 1 May 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by OMG what an experience The 6 lap drive was really good but wished i went faster than the 105km/h that i got too. Lol. Glad i was fastened in tightly because the 3 hot laps were really fast. Will deafinately do this again. 30 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Great experience. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Very well looked after on the day. Plenty of information given and staff very friendly and helpful. Everything was well planned and although there were a lot of participants on the day it ran smoothly and professionally. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the experience to anyone. 28 April 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by No Value for Money I was quite surprised at the lack of Preperation / Safety put into the drive prior to you stepping into a Powerful V8 Racing Car. The Value for Money is not worth what is paid considering you have to pay an additonal sum to get a Photo or USB video stick of your drive, The Sound and Power of those vehicles is really good but 6 Laps for what we paid - No Value? There was a couple of vehicles that spun out on the day and the lack of care for the drivers when they returned to the pits was quite astounding (I overheard a comment relating to the damage to the Infield (Grass) and i hope the Driver had Stains in there pants (Along those lines). Would i do it again? Definetly not! 25 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by This was a fantastic experience. This was something I never thought I would ever do, but I am so glad I did. The drive itself was terrific although I didn,t make a very good job of it. I thoroughly enjoyed the 3 fast laps and it gave me an idea of how it would be like when racing.It was a great experience and intend to give our son a gift of this experience for his 40th birthday. 23 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by I had a great time and will do it again. A great day out, it was very well run and all staff at the track were great and very helpful. Will do it again one day. 22 April 2013

Rated 2 out of 5 by An experience but not a good one. Vehicle offered was a Falcon. I found the fumes in the car overpowering to the point that I couldn't continue with the 3 hot laps which were booked and afterwards I felt nauseas and vomited. An alternative car perhaps would have been better. 21 April 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by The driving on the track was great, BUT waiting to drive drive was rediculous I was told to be at the track by 11 am for 11.15 start. I didn't get into the car until 2 pm. I had to sit near the track in a racing suit which became very hot for about 2 hours. The driving was great BUT i wouldn't really recommend this experience because of the long time just sitting around waiting to drive. Surely you could offer, for more money if needed, a time to drive within half an hour of arriving. I also didn't do the back seat ride with a driver part of my ticket which was for 12.15pm as I still hadn't had my drive on the track. A very disappointing waste of a day. 21 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by V8 lap combo awesome morning riding in V8 race cars. loved every minute of it 21 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by It was something that I have wanted to do for a long time and wasnt let down. The day was terrific and it was well worth the wait. The only thing that I would change would be to have cold water available at the sitting area for the people waiting and the return drivers and passengers. 21 April 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by amazing experience was an absolutely amazing experience.. very enjoyable and would definately do it again and would recommend it to anyone. just make sure you plan to spend the whole day out there as it is a long wait. 20 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by This was a fantastic experience. Received this voucher from my best friend for my 50th birthday. Had a fantastic time. All the staff at the track where helpful. Purchased the photo and USB combo pack and am very pleased with both. The only thing that could be improved on is if they had a choice of Ford or Holden for the pre-race photo. As a Ford lover I was a little disappointed that only the Holden was available for photo. Other than that, fantastic experience and would definitely do it again. 19 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by i had the best time and will do it again lite rain started just as we got there , but cleared in about 45 - 50 mins and waited for the track to dry off enough for us to drive , we were kept informed as to what was happening 15 April 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by What awesome day! My wife bought this for me and I was stoked! It was a lot of fun and will definitely do again! 7 April 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mad experience!!!!! Mad experience! Mad time! Don't wait just book! Couldn't drive home after it because I was so pumped! 7 April 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by resonable fun factor The experience would have been a lot better if second gear was allowed to be engaged, a few corners needed tto be in second gear then it would have been a lot more fun, i noticed when i went as a pasanger on the hot laps second gear was used which made it great fun been able to drift the rear end out a little and accelerate quicker out of the corners. Maybe consideration should be taken in relation to the drivers ability to handle the car well.Otherwise the experience was a lot of fun. 5 April 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by This was an amazing experience. The only thing I was not happy with was, I was asked if I wanted to drive a manual or an automatic car. I replied an automatic, she then told me there was no automatic car to drive, then why ask me that question in the first place. Apart from that, I had an awesome time. Thank you. 20 March 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by A fun experience The laps were counted at the start of the straight so I only drove for 5 full laps and 2 full laps with a driver. I thought this was a bit cheap considering the cost of the experience. I expected the drive with the professional driver to be a bit better than it was. I had a great time but a few small things detracted from the whole experience. 20 March 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Amazing The drive was a gift for my 50th from my husband. I had a great day. 19 March 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Great Day of fun & Service was excellent Will do this again, next time with a few friends to share the experience 19 March 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Very enjoyable experience Overall a very enjoyable experience. I would have preferred to do the hot laps as a passenger first to observe how the drive could and should be done. The car I drove seemed to be underpowered. This may be so for obvious safety reasons. The speedometer didn't work, so I had no idea what speed I was doing, which could be a good thing from a safety viewpoint but not from an achievement viewpoint. It takes at least four laps to get the feel of the car, so I thought that six laps were no where near enough for me. On reviewing the in car video, I'm wondering about the calibration of the digital speedometer? I'm sure that my driving skills would improve rapidly with more time on the track. My mate Colin has produced a complete movie of the whole experience which is really well done and will be used to bore the pants off friends and relations for some time to come. Looking forward to another Birthday or Christmas present so that I can have another go! 18 March 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Awesome The V8 driving experience was fantastic fun, professionally organized and something I would recommend to anyone! Do it, you'll be grinning for hours! 18 March 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by NOT HAPPY From the moment we got there they could not find our bookings,was sorted,went all down hill from there,rush rush rush, got in car, COACH was rude strait away no enjoyment from drive at all, was going to pull in pits early to exit car , stuck it out to finish laps, did not wait to have our 4 laps in back seat,left venue asap.. booking for 1.30 pm onsite 12.30 more than enough time, 3 of us for drives, 3 x usb, 3 x photos, 3 x photo upgrades, to be treated like that NEVER AGAIN 4 March 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by I always had very high regard for our V8 drivers...but now... wow! I have always been keen on V8 racing : I love sports of all sorts, but this one I really get a buzz from. The current group of V8 drivers have such talent. As a comparison, my top speed around Sandown on Saturday was the average speed of the drivers over the weekend in Adelaide! I wish I had a little more confidence, I would have pushed harder. But when you don't drive these high performance cars every other day, it's natural instinct to think that they would not pull up if you push them hard into a corner. Wonderful experience and loved the apex, entry, exit jargon - made it real! 4 March 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Roar V8 experience The sound and acceleration of these cars is absolutely what I wanted. After being strapped down tight into the racing seat it was all go from there. Great profession staff too - I would recommend it to anyone. 2 January 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by it was okay the day was a good experience, the coaches were very helpful but i wanted it to scare me and it didnt it wasnt what i expected but i enjoyed the day alot, i dont think that the qaulity of the video and sound on the usb is worth what u pay though. 28 December 2012
