NOW HELD ON MONDAY 8TH DECEMBER - SPOTS STILL AVAILABLE

We are back with another beginner's training night. After the success and great feedback from the first training night, we have decided to hold another as requested by many people. This will be open to complete beginner's for their first on track experience, through to slightly experienced/been to archy a few times but wants to advance their skills. We are organising a drift day that will have a maximum of 16 drivers which will be supervised by 8 'pro level' instructors.

Instructors:
Josh Newson
Sam Holz
Dan Jorgensen

We will be running the track simular to last time, starting with a walk around the track to highlight points that should be made aware of and the corners etc, followed by donut spots and figure 8s to get a handle on the throttle control. Once the drivers feel they are ready they will move up into practicing the corners (except turn 1 as donuts will still be taking place there until later in the evening). By the end of the night, the drivers are encouraged to attempt linking the corners with a continuous drift with the assistance of some helpful advice and pointers from our instructors.

Most of the instructors will also be bringing their own cars out on track to give you the opportunity to jump in with them and see what they do (eg. when they use handbrake, clutch kick, entries and exits to the turns, etc.) As every instructor will be taking care of only two drivers throughout the day, they will be able to monitor your progress and note areas that need improving.

It will be held on Monday 8th December from 5-8pm. We are now able to start taking pre-entries. First 16 payments received will have guaranteed positions on the night.

Cost will be $100 per driver which will cover the cost of 2 pit crew. No other spectators will be allowed entry as it is a beginner's day and the focus is on the driving not the crowds.

This will be a great day that shouldn't be missed by anyone that is wanting to get into drifting with a head start above the rest. You can pre-enter on the online form at the top of this page. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact myself on emma@option1garage.com.au.

Hey, sorry about the late reply. Yes it was GREAT!! We had a 16 year old boy linking up the corners brilliantly and all but maybe one car was able to link 3/4 of the track more than once... was great to see!
