The A1GP and how YOU can be in the action!

Some of our FreemanX team were lucky enough to visit the A1GP. A brilliant time had by all. Checkout a few snap shots and videos below.

We've attached links to our FreemanX NZ Experiences where you can drive and have hot laps around this very track in some of the same cars...an awesome opportunity if you're game.

The V8's without a doubt are the real highlight, the drivers are so aggressive and it makes for brilliant viewing, there was no shortage of grinding and panel damage.




























You can drive fully race prepared V8's in Australia and New Zealand if you want to take up the challenge.

The Formula Fords are pretty amazing open wheelers, they absolutely fly through the corners. most V8 supercar talent comes from this category.



The Formula Fords looked like go-karts once you got a taste of the A1GP cars, the sound was amazing, the high pitched squeal down the straights contrasted against the thundering roar of exhaust back pressure under breaks.














As far as the tin-tops went the Porsche really held on to the tarmac, they were late on the breaks down the back straight and navigated the difficult turns with relative ease.

If you would like to feel first hand what that's like or you think you have what it takes to drive one...we've got the hook up. Same cars, same track.
