Operated By:
It’s every racer’s fantasy — a roaring V8 engine, a dirt circuit full of twists and turns, and the freedom to push the limits. Now, that dream can be your reality. Wannabe racers are lining up to go wild buggy-style!
This is your chance to experience something truly unique — an off-road adventure that feels straight out of an action movie.
The Experience
When you arrive for your Off Road Racing Experience, you’ll kick off with a Drivers Briefing to cover the rules, track layout, and safety details. Then it’s time to suit up and jump behind the wheel!
You’ll take control of a real V8 race buggy, powered by a Chev LS1 V8 engine, with an instructor in the passenger seat acting as your navigator — offering expert tips on car control, drifting, and race technique.
As each lap goes by, your confidence builds. Your speed increases down the back straight, your turns get smoother, and your grin gets bigger. This is full-throttle fun at its best — sideways slides, dirt flying, and adrenaline surging!
Throughout the experience, you’ll be fully equipped with:
A full-face helmet
Racing overalls
A race harness for complete safety
And when you think you’ve had enough excitement — you’ll swap seats and experience a Hot Lap with a professional driver at the wheel. Hang on tight — this is where the adrenaline really peaks!

Once again couldn’t be happier with the experience and I’m looking forward to Bri going my dad here soon 10/10
As for the off-road driving experience, while it looked exciting, we found the circuit a bit underwhelming. It was mostly flat with minimal turns and had only one ramp that didn’t allow for much airtime. For the price, the driving experience didn’t quite meet our expectations.
Overall, the exceptional hospitality of the staff was a highlight of our visit. We hope that in the future, the circuit can be enhanced to offer more thrills, making the experience truly worth the investment.
Owners very friendly and driver was excellent in the hot lap!
-Awesome first time off road racing experience
-Streamline online booking
-Professional staff
-Confident instructor
Considerations for improvement:
-An elevated viewing area higher than the spectator hill would make waiting much more engaging.
-A track map/diagram(even as an online version) would have been much appreciated as we had no idea what to expect prior to entering the driver seat.
-Seat adjustments were a little limiting for adults of smaller stature: They cycle drivers through at an efficient pace and experience will be over before you know it, so make sure you are seated at the controls comfortably.
Fantastic experience, and I will recommend it to all driving enthusiasts
Great communication all through the booking process, easy to locate venue and very sincere service.
We had some mud which i think made it more fun, even though probably slightly slower than the track would allow. Nonetheless wee man had a brilliant few hours and has another experience to remember.
