My girlfriend kindly gave me this as a birthday present last year and I can say it was absolutely fantastic
If you never driven round a racetrack before then this is a great experience. The driving instructors are most helpful and are willing to push you to your limits which is a lot of fun. Here is a video compilation I made up of my V8 Race Experience from various footage obtained on the day. Seano's V8 Race Experience.zip - 55.1mb |

u have a few laps with someone else driving, then a bit of learning time about changing gears and driving the car.
After that u get to drive for a while, i think 20 laps but not sure and finally our pro driver takes u at full racing speeds which is insane.... :evilsasmo
