    Cost is $120 each up front, so make sure you get in soon to secure your place.

    This event is open to anyone and any vehicle type, so if you have a mate, friend or enemy who would like to come along that'll be fine. Spectators also welcome!!

    What you get:
    * Introduction to advanced car control and skid control
    * Cornering techniques
    * Defensive driving techniques
    * Update your knowledge of your vehicles technology
    * Emergency response techniques
    * One-on-one coaching
    * Time on the skidpan

    What if I pay but then can’t make it?

    Once the 10 spaces have been filled, anyone interested will be added to a reserves list. If anyone isn’t able to turn up, their spot will be offered to the next person on the reserves list.

    is this on the skidpan or the skid track?

    I am thinking of trying to organise one through rick bates driving school, but this is a little cheaper too..

    Mind you I cant do anything on Sundays anyway

    ps if its anything like the rick bates one while they dont exactly call it drifting, its a skidpan car control course, so the idea is to get things a bit crossed up
