Here is your chance to bring your car to the skid pan. You will learn all about threshold braking, obstacle avoidance and have lots of real "let your hair down" fun.
This day is performed in a safe, supportive environment. You'll learn what to expect from your car and be better equipped to avoid getting in to trouble in the first place.
A great day out for you and your car. Learn new braking and steering techniques, learn slide/spin control - experience what happens when you slide or lose control in your car.
All done on a huge, slippery wet concrete skidpan in the Sydney Metro Area. Our professional instructors jump in with you, guide and help out with every step. It's all about helping you think calmly in emergencies and slowing your heart rate!
How do we do this? We put you through our emergency training techniques including 'handbrake turns' and get you so use to emergency procedures your thinking becomes clearer and calmer - oh by they way... it's sensational fun too!
