WHAT IT IS
What is race driver for a day?
"Race driver for a day" is the popular name for a guided, performance driving experience - not a competition, not a long course, and not a simulator. It's an experience where you drive a real sports car yourself with a certified instructor beside you, in a safe and controlled environment, getting exactly the feeling a race driver has - minus the risk.
- Not a competition - no clock, no rival, no pressure to win.
- A real sports car - the Corvette C6 with 450 hp, the Nissan 370Z with a 350 hp V6, or the EVO X with a turbo and 4x4. Not go-karts.
- A certified instructor beside you - teaching, explaining and guiding you every step of the way.
- A safe environment - a professional race track or a dedicated road.
- Works even with no previous experience - the briefing prepares you for everything you need to know.
HOW IT WORKS
How does the experience actually work?
From the first message to the video you get afterward - everything is coordinated and managed by the EXR team. Here's what happens:
Reach out on WhatsApp
Send a message with your preferred car, location and type of experience - and get a personalized offer from the team.

Corvette C6, Nissan 370Z or EVO X, the Arad race track or Nes Harim - the experience is shaped around what you're looking for.
Arrive and get briefed
On arrival, a certified instructor walks you through the car, safety, and how to get the most out of the experience.
Head out to drive
The instructor rides beside you for the entire drive - coaching you on racing line, braking, eye direction and car control.
Get your video and photos
The drive is documented professionally - a video and photos that last long after the engine switches off.

AS A GIFT
Race driver for a day as a gift
One of the most popular uses for this experience is as a gift. It's not just another gift that's forgotten within a week - it has three layers that make it special:
- Emotion and adrenaline - he feels it in his body, not just by opening a box.
- Documentation - the video and photos stick around. Every time he watches them, he'll remember.
- A story - he'll tell everyone about it. It's the gift that becomes an anecdote.
You can buy a gift voucher that lets the recipient schedule the experience whenever suits him, or a birthday voucher with a personal dedication for the occasion. Message us on WhatsApp and we'll put together a personalized voucher for you.
