Thanks for a great experience guys - from the intro, slickness of registering, through to the politeness, positive and friendly nature and customer focus of the guys in the car / track - really good, thank you heaps. Your intro video could do with a volume increase / redo perhaps :-) The experience made me eager to come back another day.. to try the Lotus and Ferrari options

I was so thrilled by driving the Aston Martin Vantage, that I now want to own one! I really appreciated the instructor feedback, he was fantastic, he talked me thru every corner and straightaway. I'm glad he was in the car with me. The hot lap in the Evo X was a total shock. I had no idea that people could drive that fast, howl around corners and brake, all whilst I felt he was in total control. He made it look so easy. After the hot lap, I had to sit for awhile before driving home to calm down. Thrilling!

Superb. Another ticked off the bucket list. No negative feedback. The day was well organised and everything ran to schedule considering the number of people participating on the day. The instructor was one out of the box and taught me a lot about driving on a race track. Would go back again tomorrow for another drive.

I can't thank you enough for an amazing day. From the very beginning your staff were amazing. Everyone had a smile and knew exactly what they were doing. My instructor in the Lambo was amazing. He encouraged me all the way to push it a bit more. By lap 3 it was lookout Lewis Hamilton. The Evo driver is insane haha. I couldn't find enough things to hold on to. Amazing hot lap. By the end of the session the young boys knew which colour jelly aeroplanes i like. At 71years young i ticked another thing off my bucket list. Don't change anything. You don't fix something thats not broken. ThNks so much. Lindsay Martin

The Experience

Oh the choices…what a life when you get to choose between driving a Lamborghini, Ferrari or an Aston Martin!

Would you go for the Lamborghini's raw V12 power, the Aston Martin's style & sophistication, or the soft and aerodynamic lines of the convertible Ferrari F430 Spyder? Yes – the choice is yours!

Experience the power of one of these supercars driving for 8km around Hampton Downs Raceway as one of our expert instructors provide guidance on the finer points of handling these beautiful machines. If this wasn’t already one of the best ways to spend a day, we wrap it up in style with a flying hot lap in the passenger seat of the awesome Mitsubishi EvoX. The ultimate end to a once in a life-time driving experience, every seat in this 4-door superstar is as good as the next, whether you’re in the front seat or the back we're sure you’ll be smiling from ear to ear when you get out.

See you at the track!
