V8 Race Car Driving | Hot Laps @ Sandown
Get the blood pumping as you blast around Sandown Raceway in the driver's seat of a V8 race car!
A highly skilled instructor will be seated beside you giving you live tuition through a headset as you tackle the circuit reaching speeds of up to 200km/h.
Upon sign in you'll be run through a comprehensive pre-drive tuition covering information on the handling of the car cornering braking and the track map to ensure you get the most out of your drive.
Feel the anticipation rise as you get kitted out in your race suit and helmet before meeting your in-car instructor and getting strapped in behind the wheel.
Then leave bystanders behind as you press down on the pedal and blister off into the track gunning it down straights and conquering corners at speeds of up to 200km/h.
During the entire drive your in-car instructor will be guiding you through the intercom on advanced gear changes and brake points.
You'll still be buzzing on the way home!
