About Habys Place Offroad Track

Habys Place — known commercially as Off Road Rush VIC/SA — is an off-road driving experience venue located on Herbig Road at Mannum in South Australia's Murray Riverland, about 80 km east of Adelaide. It runs one of the most exhilarating drive experiences in regional SA: participants take the wheel of a V8 race buggy powered by a Lexus V8 engine capable of speeds up to 220 km/h, a WRX turbo rally car, or a Yamaha Can-Am YXZ 1000R on a purpose-built off-road circuit featuring long straights, rally-style corners, and purpose-built jumps. Professional instructors guide each session, all safety gear is provided, and combo packages let you sample more than one machine. The venue has built an enthusiastic following since Off Road Rush VIC/SA relocated to the Mannum property and operates year-round on the rural South Australian circuit.
