Recommended Posts

Skylines Australia Victoria is proudly sponsored by Driver Dynamics and has had an ongoing relationship for years now.

DD is heading over to SA to do some promotion of road safety and run some courses. I thought that some of you might be interested in this Advanced Driving course:

Super Special Discounted Advanced Car Control Course

Saturday 15th September 2012 at Tailem Bend Motorsport Park

Driver Dynamics will be hosting a specially discounted Advanced Car Control Course at Tailem Bend Motorsport Park on Saturday 15th September 2012 .

This course is suited to all drivers and is focused on raising the drivers awareness of vehicle dynamics and advanced vehicle control skills.

The format is very much ‘hands on’, with the emphasis on practical driving exercises including, highway-speed emergency braking, wet corner emergency braking, emergency lane changing, multiple direction changes, vehicle stability, understeer and oversteer exercises, etc.

The nature of this course will allow the participants the opportunity to explore ‘high end’ vehicle control skills at the critical limit.

Regardless of your previous driving experience you will learn lots on this program !

The theory component of this course includes an in depth analysis of advanced vehicle dynamics including the introduction and understanding of the Traction Circle.

This course will be conducted by full-time professional, qualified advanced driving instructors and will be lead by Driver Dynamics CEO Kevin Flynn.

This is a full day course starting at 9am and concluding at 4.00pm.

Note that this is not a trackday, there is no circuit lapping.

You don’t need a helmet or any special modifications to your car.

No spectators are permitted and will be refused entry.

Normally drivers would expect to pay $315 for this course, but we’re offering this date for only $199.00 per driver.

No further discounts will apply to this course

Positions for this course are limited, so if you’d like to attend please call 1300 652 693 to book.

If anyone else is keen, I'll give the place a call and book it - will need to know numbers asap - can anyone interested in this pls PM me by the 7th of June and I'll see what I can arrange.....

For a day like this would it be best to run in rwd?

I guess it depends on the end goal? Ie if you disable awd to drift or motokhana then I'd imagine that its best to get taught with the same setup?

That said, it'd be cool to do the same course with the same car in rwd and then awd... would really give you some idea of what the awd does...

having awd will make it a little hard to practice what they want to achieve with oversteer

also agree would be very beneficial to complete in both awd mode and rwd

    • Robertson was a Canadian inventor, and it absolutely reigns supreme here. 95% of our screws are Roberston. It's literally the only option you can buy off store shelves. What would it have lost out too? I believe it's also very popular in the US.  My reference to imperial was pointed to both NPT and BSP. 
    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A
