The Auto Action

Sandown Raceway - Melbourne, VIC

  • 4 Drive laps

Automatic licence holders – Have you ever wanted to feel the adrenaline of driving a V8 race car?

We now have two new Autos that deliver all of the action and excitement of our manual cars that everyone can drive.

With 91% of cars sold in Australia last year being autos and 75% of drivers under 25 years of age having auto licences, we’ve now engineered a race-spec Ford and Holden V8 Auto that’s fast and fun. Now anyone with a licence can make the dream of being a V8 racing car driver a reality.

  • 4 driving laps in an automatic race car with your own personal Motorsport Australia experienced in-car coach
  • Pre-drive briefing, use of a race suit and open face helmet
  • Cars have electronic lap counters with laps measured from pit to pit

On arrival you will sign on and be kitted up into your race attire, have your photo taken in our professional photo garage and when ready, have your helmet fitted and be strapped in for a full tilt 4 lap driving experience in an automatic race car that will give you a lasting impression to remember!

Extras available for purchase:

  • Large framed twin photo souvenir
  • Live action video in-car recording
