A circuit that makes you a better driver

Arad is the most technical circuit in Israel, and that's precisely why EXR calls it home. Its 14 corners — spread across the Rally North/South, Karting and Super Moto configurations — force real decisions from the driver: where to brake, where to turn in, how to place the car so one corner sets up the next. It's the difference between driving fast and driving well.

Because a circuit repeats, progress is measurable. You take a corner, your instructor talks you through what happened, and next lap you take it better. By the end of a session most drivers are carrying speed through sequences they wouldn't have believed on arrival. The facility itself is a proper motorsport venue: an official pit lane, a paddock for the cars, and a spectator area with capacity for up to 1,000 people. The track is licensed by the Ministry of Culture & Sport and the motorsport authority — a fully legal, professionally run circuit.

How a session flows

Every Arad experience follows the same professional rhythm. You arrive at the paddock and meet your certified English-speaking instructor. Then comes the safety briefing: the track, the flags, the car, the plan for your session. From there you head out through the pit lane with your instructor in the passenger seat, building speed lap by lap as your confidence and technique grow. The whole time, our team captures video and photos — included, like the briefing, instructor and insurance, in every experience. New to all of this? The first track day guide walks through it step by step, and the experience page covers the full format.

Bring your crowd

Arad is the location to choose if you want an audience. The spectator area holds up to 1,000 people, so family, friends or an entire company can watch every lap from a dedicated vantage point while the drivers rotate through the cars. Combined with the paddock and pit lane, it feels like a race weekend — because structurally, that's exactly what the venue was built for.

Getting there, and when to come

The track sits in southern Israel, near Arad. Navigation is simple: enter "מסלול מירוצים ערד" in Waze and it takes you to the gate. Its southern location makes it a natural anchor for a desert day — many visitors combine their drive with the Masada and Dead Sea region in a single southern itinerary.

The desert climate shapes the calendar. In summer, book an early-morning session and drive in cool, clear desert air before the heat builds. In winter, the south stays mild while the rest of the country turns grey — often the best track weather in Israel. The circuit runs year-round; tell us your date on WhatsApp and we'll recommend the ideal slot.

The cars you'll drive

All three EXR cars run at Arad: the 450-hp V8 Corvette C6, the turbocharged 4WD Mitsubishi EVO X and the precise BMW M240 — many guests drive two or all three back to back. Prefer mountain scenery to a circuit? Compare Arad with Nes Harim in the Judean Hills on the locations page.

Pricing: Arad track experiences run from ₪1,000 to ₪8,000 depending on car, duration and format — instructor, briefing, insurance and video always included. See the full pricing page or ask on WhatsApp for an exact quote.
