    Had a fantastic day, didn't really know what to expect, however all peolple involved on the day were very professional and made the day very enjoyable event. Would recommend to anyone who has ever even given it a fleeting moment to what it would be like to race a V8. No pressure by staff except to enjoy yourself and have fun. Cheers would do it again anytime; waiting for son to get his drivers lisence so can participate next time instead of just watching from the pits. Cheers

    I was provided with both the V8 Experience and Flight Simulator as a birthday gift. The process of converting the voucher to the activity was seamless. Both activities were professionally conducted and absolutely thrilling. Thoroughly recommend both activities and the Red Balloon Experience. Matt from Miranda NSW

    I found the experience well organised and informative. The pre briefing was extremly helpful on driving techniques along with some aero-dynamic principals to adhere to. The in car coach ( I think it was Chris in my case ) was very helpful. I was determined to attempt smooth rather than on the ragged edge and believe that approach worked well. It is all too easy to let the adrenalin take over and ruin the experience. Is there was a chance of a 12 lap driving experience it would be a great way to ...

It is all too easy to let the adrenalin take over and ruin the experience. Is there was a chance of a 12 lap driving experience it would be a great way to put the learning to practice over that many laps as the 6 ended so quickly. David. ps. you will see me again.
