Sydney Motorsport Park: V8 Hot Lap Experience

About this experience

Sydney Motorsport Park: V8 Hot Lap Experience is a passenger racing attraction in Sydney that puts you in the front seat of a V8 race car alongside a professional racing driver for three high-speed laps around the circuit at Sydney Motorsport Park on Ferrers Road. The experience runs for approximately three hours and is suited to anyone who wants a close look at what competitive circuit driving involves, from the acceleration out of corners to the braking points that define a fast lap. It sits among the more adrenaline-focused things to do in Sydney and draws visitors who want something beyond standard sightseeing. Before heading out on track, participants are fitted with a race suit and an open-face helmet, so no specialist gear is required. The two front-seat hot laps are conducted with a professional racing driver at the wheel, giving passengers a direct sense of the speeds and forces involved in circuit racing. Tickets cover the race suit and helmet hire, the professional driver, and both hot laps. Transfers to Sydney Motorsport Park are not included and guests should arrange their own transport to the Ferrers Road starting point. The experience cannot be cancelled once booked, so confirm your date carefully before completing your booking.
