Rallystar Motorsport Academy presents:

A SHOT OF PURE ADRENALINE

You have discovered the Ultimate Xtreme experience!

Do you know what it is like to blitz through a “special stage” in a rally car driven in anger strapped in next to a expert rally driver?

Ready to go......

Words cannot describe that incredible adrenaline rush and exhilaration you experience at full throttle behind the steering of a powerful rally Subaru in the company of one of our professional rally instructors.

You will not believe the ability of the cars, drivers and technology – least of all how this combination works to give you the thrill of your life.

RALLYSTAR MOTORSPORT ACADEMY OFFERS YOU THE ONLY REAL “RALLY EXPERIENCE” IN SOUTH AFRICA.

RALLYSTAR OFFERS THE FOLLOWING:

Deal 1. A HOTSEAT experience in a rally car:

The “Hotseat” experience consist of a reconnaissance lap driven at medium speed to show you the route you are going to be taken and prepare you somewhat for the experience.

Then, just as you think it can not be so bad, all hell breaks loose when the professional driver opens up the powerful Subaru to take you around our specialist rally track at rally speed.

You may be lucky enough to experience the well-known car control skills of ex-South African multi Rally champion Leon Botha or the sideways skills of Jacques Botha and company will ensure that you bring all your friends for more! (note that drivers are rotated)

Maximum attack......Leon Botha in Action

Summary of the Package: A ‘warm-up settle in’ lap and then the Big One! All this for only R750 - Remember our special group prices!

Deal 2. A REAL HOT LAP AROUND THE WORLD'S MOST EXCITING SUPER SPECIAL STAGE

This is a double whammy – where we add some excitement not many people will ever experience. We take your group around our Super Special stage in two competing rally cars at the same time!

You experience what happens on a WRC event during a Super Special Stage!

The two cars start next to each other and you will experience that magic Subaru pull awaywhile the drivers vie for position.

After the first huge jump the cars split away from each other - that one doing the short - and the other continuing on the "long" circuit. Then comes the nerve wrecking switch over of lanes and the drivers change track! All this while you patch up your ability to pray while you still enjoy what must be one of the greatest sensations you will ever enjoy!

If all goes well, the two cars should cross the finish line together!

Have you got the nerve?

For this special treat - only groups of 8 and more will be accommodated. Price R850 per person. This is truly mind-boggling and very popular at Corporate days, team building etc.

THEN YOU GET TO THE ULTIMATE ADRENALINE EXPERIENCE

Deal 3. The Rallystar Motorsport Academy Self-drive

This incredible experience:

Starts of with an introduction session lasting about 25 minutes. We tell you all about the rules, a bit about drive-lines, rally car behaviour and then the most interesting - how to use the Route Notes for when you will tackle your first Special Stage just like a seasoned rally driver!

After this one of our specialist drivers will take you around the track to show you something about “racing lines” and point out the dangers while you try and memorize the lot!

Then you get your turn to get behind the steering wheel of a rally car. This is your chance to do four orientation laps over the route you will be doing to get the 'feeling' of the car, its power and behaviour on gravel.

Then follows what you have been waiting for - the chance to open up the Subaru Turbo-power under the bonnet and get the sensation of a real adrenaline rush during the amazing performance of a rally car driven in anger!

Fun on one of the best Super Special tracks in the WORLD!

Then comes your big test - you will have to drive through Rally Special Stage!

This is when you will experience what it is like in a rally car when the team competes under pressure!

Your professional navigator will call the instructions at machine gun speed and you will have to interpret them as your drive through a special stage you have never seen before!

South Africas favourite rally venue - now open to you!

This is where you need to keep your cool!

Instructions come flying, you will have to listen to one call, interpreted and apply it, while you have to listen to the next one, remember the previous one .....take in another…..awesome!

This is real fun, but afterwards you will have new respect for the ability of rally drivers to do all these things at high speed!

Then, just to make sure that we managed to release all the adrenaline possible in you, one of our master drivers will take you for a special bonus hot lap over the specialist rally track to cool you down!

All this in a powerful Subaru for only R2500p.p.

Price includes a light meal and RallyStar Certificate.

Self-drive sessions last about 1½ to 4 hours depending on size of the group.
Conditions apply.
Special prices for groups.

You don't have to be the Stig - like our South African Stok proved!
