Just because you’re not a professional race car driver doesn’t mean that you can’t experience the adrenaline-pumping intensity of race cars. Jump into an F1-style, Formula Ford racing car and take on the extreme speed out on the racetrack in Wodonga, Victoria. First off, you’ll complete two orientation laps around the track in a road car with a real race car driver behind the wheel to prepare you for driving a real race car. Then it’s time to get behind the wheel of a single seater F1-style Formula Ford race car and experience the thrill of a race car first hand.

You’ll be strapped in by a six-point racing harness in an open cockpit with a quick release steering wheel in front of you, and a gear stick connected to a 4-speed close ratio, purpose-built racing gearbox. For 10 laps of Wodonga Tafe race track you can tear up the tarmac and enjoy the power at your fingertips. You’ll experience heart-pounding thrills as the F1-style Formula Ford race car slides and drifts around the circuit at extreme speeds. This machine has over 2.5Gs of lateral grip, so the cornering forces are insane. It’s an experience that will have you riding an adrenaline high long after.

Good activity but car problems

We drove about 4 hours from Melbourne to the F1 style track. Started off well, we had 2 laps of the tracks which was great but the car seemed to die on the 3rd lap where it started going really slow and we did the last 2 laps really slow. The driver said to the pit crew when we got back that it died but nobody said anything to me or acknowledged anything was wrong or apologised. The crew seemed to talk to the next few people in my group about it while they were working on the car. We also purchased the video of it for $39 and it wasn't even a full lap, it lasted 48 seconds. Would not recommend buying the video at all!! The experience would have been great if we had of got the full experience but a bit of a let down overall.
