About the Cars Obstacle Challenge
The Cars Obstacle Challenge brings Lightning McQueen and the Radiator Springs crew into your backyard or event space. This 10.5-metre obstacle course has kids climbing, crawling, and scrambling through themed tunnels and over climbing walls to reach the finish. The bright vehicle graphics and racing Cars theme keep kids on the course far longer than a standard jumping castle. It is one of the busiest obstacle courses in the Jump About range, and the reason is simple: kids already know the cars, they already want to race, and this course gives them a track to do it on.
The course suits kids aged 4 to 12, which makes it popular for birthday parties where siblings and friends span different ages. For parents who want a full Cars theme at their event, add the Cars Jumping Castle hire from $190 for 4 hours alongside this obstacle course.

The 10.5m length means this course takes up more space than a jumping castle. You need a flat area of at least 12.5m by 8m, leaving 1m of clearance on each side. The 5.5m is total height, not platform height, so no SafeWork NSW inspection is required. View the full obstacle course range if you want to compare sizes before you book.

Delivery and setup
Jump About handles everything on delivery day. The team arrives at your venue, inflates the obstacle course, runs a safety check, and has it ready before guests arrive. At the end of your hire, they return to deflate, pack, and collect. You do not need to touch the equipment at any point.
What you need to provide is a flat area of at least 12.5m by 8m and a standard 240V power outlet within 15m of the setup spot. The electric blower runs throughout the hire, so the outlet needs to stay accessible during your event.
We deliver across the Central Coast, Newcastle, and Hunter Valley to more than 340 suburbs, including Gosford, Terrigal, Erina, Wyong, Charlestown, Maitland, and Cessnock. Setup and pack down are in the hire price. Delivery is a separate fee selected by suburb at checkout. Fees start at $60 for nearby Central Coast suburbs.


Why kids love the Cars Obstacle Challenge
Kids love this obstacle course because it is not a passive activity. There is no sitting on the sideline. They climb, crawl, race through tunnels, and then do it all again. The Cars racing theme gives every run a story: this is Lightning McQueen's track, and every kid wants to be the first to cross the finish line. That framing keeps them coming back for lap after lap.
The course also holds the attention of older kids. Ten to 12 year olds race each other, while 4 to 6 year olds work through the climbing sections at their own pace. The Adrenaline Rush Obstacle Challenge is a bigger option if you need a course for teens and adults. The Cars C4 Combo castle with slide from $280 pairs well for younger guests who want a calmer setup alongside the challenge course.
Safety and insurance
Every Jump About hire comes with public liability insurance. Equipment is regularly inspected and maintained to Australian safety standards. Adult supervision is required at all times while the Cars Obstacle Challenge is in use. The course must be anchored with ground stakes before anyone uses it. Do not allow kids with a large size difference to race through the course at the same time. If the weather turns during your hire, we will contact you and work out the best arrangement. For more on what happens on delivery day, see how booking works on the Jump About site.
