There is nothing more agile or animated on track. Want to feel ‘100% Alive’? Choose to drive this machine.

You will be driving a Lotus on Sydney’s South Circuit, which is 1.8km around the famous Corporate Hill. This circuit is a sharp, technical circuit with a fantastic mix of corners that will test drivers of all levels and you’ll have the assistance of an experienced instructor to get the most out of the car and your drive. The Lotus has a 6-speed manual transmission for the traditional experience of driving a track-ready Supercar.
