V8 Race Car Ride of a Lifetime
Fastrack Racing, Keilor, VIC

With crowds bigger than a quarter of a million for some events, V8 Supercars have emerged as Australia's premier racing category. Big, heavy, loud and staggeringly powerful, you'll experience the thrill in this ride of a lifetime.

After a full briefing, you'll be suited up in full race gear and helmet, and strapped in for a hair-raising, adrenaline-pumping, three lap sprint around the Calder Park raceway with a Pro driver behind the wheel.

We don't use painted street cars to create your experience. You'll be sitting in a current, purpose-built circuit race car with a five litre, 400 hp engine and superior handling and braking capacity - which you'll truly appreciate as your car is pushed to the limit around the twisting circuit. What a ride!
