One of the best experiences I have done a number of heart thumping trills before, but this one is amongst the best fun I have ever had. The staff were professional and patient. A single seat formula race car chance of a life time. Fast, safe and satisfying. Still smiling days after the day. Would recommend to anyone who wants to experience what the professionals race drivers do for a living. I think this is far better than the V8 Supercar experience.


Enjoyed the day very much. Will go again. I think the second time will be even more enjoyable than the first. It was cold and the track still had some wet patches the day I went. Would like to go again in warmer weather.


This was a gift to my wife. Formula fordNot only did she have a great time so did the family.Totally recommend a Thrill Experience


I think the experience is very overpriced


What a rush! The Formula Ford driving experience was incredible. I loved the adrenaline rush and the power of the car. Definitely a must-do for any car enthusiast.
