evil_weevil Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Great idea using someone elses car, but if I want to learn, I'd like to learn in my own car! $450 though, bit out of my range! Who are the instructors? Anyone from D.A? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/204682-drift-school/#findComment-3626076 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I disagree - $450 is an excellent price if the car is provided. All the best with the day it looks like a good concept Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/204682-drift-school/#findComment-3626737 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michele Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I disagree - $450 is an excellent price if the car is provided. All the best with the day it looks like a good concept Yeah not bad value when you consider a full day event using their car - overheating, oil, fuel, engine, tyres, possible panel damage etc would be all their responsibility. We could really drive it like we stole it LOL Where is the skid pan at Oran Park? Is it bigger than the one here in Canberra?

I can't speak for this particular course, however with the courses we have down here... are P platers allowed? YES Do i need a special license like those CAMS things? NO $450. whats if knowing my luck the car catches on fire? how much? $$$0 <--my thoughts, its their risk and they have a duty of care to ensure safety i.e. extinguisher in place etc Bring my own helmet? No helmet required here as it isn't a speed event, its a small track and you would be lucky to get over 60kph is it ok for total Noobs to enter? like should i have done a motorkhana or something before entering into this? YES okay for noobs, no previous experience required so long as you know how to drive a car Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/204682-drift-school/#findComment-3627454 Share on other sites More sharing options...
