Drift Experience FAQs Melbourne

Calder Park Raceway, about half an hour north-west of the Melbourne CBD. Parking is on site and there is room for a coach if you are bringing one.
Up to 35 guests in a day. There is no formal minimum, but the day is priced as a whole booking rather than per head, so smaller groups pay the same as larger ones. Most groups land between 15 and 30.
Four to six weeks is comfortable. We have turned days around faster than that, and we would rather you asked than assumed it was too late.
We run. Wet circuit is arguably better for this - more slide, more smoke, no less control. We only move a day for weather that makes the circuit genuinely unsafe, and if we do, you get a new date rather than an invoice.
12. Under 18s need a parent or guardian to sign the waiver. If the sanctioning body sets a different figure, use theirs.

Yes, and that is not a throwaway answer. Every car has a full roll cage, racing harnesses and
a fire extinguisher. Helmets are supplied. Every guest gets a briefing before they go out, and the whole operation runs under motorsport sanctioning with full insurance. It is built to feel far more dangerous than it is.
Yes. The day runs under motorsport sanctioning and insurance is included in the day rate, not an extra. You will sign a waiver on arrival, same as any circuit activity.
Yes, one per guest, signed on arrival before anything moves. If you’re under 18 your waiver needs to be signed by a parent or legal guardian.
They say so and the run ends. Every driver is briefed to pull up the moment a passenger asks, and nobody is talked back into the car. It happens occasionally and nobody minds.
None. You are not driving. The only requirement is that you can get in and out of a car with a roll cage in it.

SAFETY & INSURANCE

Long sleeves, long pants and closed-toe shoes. That is a sanctioning requirement, not a suggestion, so anyone in shorts and thongs will be watching. Bring sunglasses and a jacket depending on the season.
Yes. Rolls, wraps and drinks trackside at lunch, plus coffee on arrival. Tell us about dietary requirements when you book and they get handled.
No, and that is deliberate. Our drivers do the driving, which is what lets us go as hard as we do. If you want a ride-and-drive format instead, ask - it is a different day and we can talk about it.
Please do. Phones, cameras, drones by arrangement. If you want something better than shaky phone footage, we can put a photographer or videographer on the day for you.

Yes. Vehicles, banners, displays trackside, your signage in every photo. Send us what you have and we will work out how to get it in frame.
Yes. Car shows, product launches, larger events - with or without passengers. Describe what you are picturing and we will tell you whether it works.
Every day is different depending on group size, timing and add-ons. We would rather price yours properly than put a fake number on a website. Send through your group size and rough timing and you will get a real figure, not a range.
