The whole experience was just great.Everything from the driver briefing to the drive in the HOLDEN V8 drivecar out on the track was perfect. My trainer told me my lap times and I was very pleased overall with my improved performance. I would have a loved another 5 or 6 laps to see just how fast I could have gone. I got the DVD of my drive but I was disappointed with the sudden ending.

Fantastic Day!!! The process of handling the customers was sensational, like a well oiled machine - we didn't encounter any unnecessary hold ups and everyone was very polite and helpful. The experience itself was awesome, and would highly recommend this to anyone looking for this kind of thing!!!

It was a great day however, I think the venue itself could do with "some work" and the comment made by the recipient of the gift was that the cars were "a bit clapped out"
-
My husband thoroughly enjoyed his experience. Staff were professional and friendly. Would recommend this experience to anyone. Thank you for a great afternoon.
-
Just awesome will recommend it to all my mates , most fun i have had in years thanks

I would advise people to do at least 5 laps but ideal 8 laps if driving themselves. First 3-4 or even 5 laps you just find your feet and relax then enjoy the rest.
-
Very professional. Terrific experience. Highy recommended for anyone who wants a feel of V8 racing.
