This is your chance to take the wheel of a Lotus Exige for 8 km around Hampton Downs Motorsport park. The Exige's light weight and low suspension puts it in a class of its own and you'll be right in on the action. Take home a complimentary USB Video recording of yourself valued at $69*.
Strap in for a drive you will never forget in the incredible Lotus Exige. After a safety briefing with your experienced instructor, take the wheel and race around the circuit for a full 8kms. Your instructor will be giving you tips and guidance on how to handle this brilliant vehicle, allowing you to get the most out of your ride. Feel the unmatched power and incredible sounds of the Exige as you drive around what some may consider the greatest track in the southern Hemisphere. To top it off, after your 8kms, it's time for you to get into the passenger seat as your instructor takes you for a breathtaking hot lap in the awesome Mitsubishi EvoX. This is the ultimate gift for the luxury car lover, the racer at heart or someone after an unbelievably exciting experience.
Spectators are more than welcome and they'll be able to accompany you into pit lane to take photos of you getting into the Supercar.
You will be provided with a weather watch number to call on the day before heading out to your drive to advise of any delays. The vehicles operate on all weather tyres so only extreme weather affects the running of the experience.
Please wear enclosed, tight fitting footwear such as sneakers. Large boots etc. aren't suitable.
Please note that this is a Driving Experience and not a Race Day - while you will get to experience the performance capabilities of the Supercar, it is not a race experience
This experience takes place at Hampton Downs Motorsport Park located halfway between Auckland and Hamilton.
RedBalloon is your one-stop shop for experiences and curated gifts. We’re so confident you’ll love what you get from us, we’re offering this promise to you…
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we’ve got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we’ll do the work for you.
Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider. If you find the same experience advertised at a lower standard price on the same day by the same provider, simply take a screenshot of the experience advertised at the lower price and tell us within 30 days of your purchase and we’ll match it.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
