Tried to organise this earlier in the year but got no response - so here goes again !!

Now got 3 people interested - need 1 or 2 more to make it a goer.

I asked Andy Walsh at Car Limits, if he would make up a bespoke course including basic slalom ( eg in and out of a line of cones, handbrake turn at the end and back again) and an intro to drifting - a chance to practice controlled longish slides. I know the Scoob is not ideal for drifting, but its an excuse to try some controlled lairy driving
Its a full day course for 4 people, so I'm now looking for 1 or 2 more Scooby drivers.

Having done one of his courses before, I can recommend the day. Its a concentrated learning experience. 1-1 tuition to get the technique "right" then practice on your own, but Andy is always there watching, and to ask questions, and to passenger with you to help you perfect the manoevre or to demonstrate again.

Andy said
‘As Scoobys don’t like tight stuff we can work on the hand brake stuff and the Scandinavian flick, trail braking to cause over steer, drift control and even the j turn could be covered along with the usual re-cap of the high speed bend that on a standard second day we usually work on sideways recovery anyway.
I will talk to everyone on the morning of the course to assess the requirements of the group."

Please p mail me if interested - or add comments on here !! If you are interested, let me know what you would like to learn/practice and I can update the requirements to Andy so he knows beforehand what we want.
Then we can sort a date. His "4 person" days are normally £220 per person.

Other suggestions from people wanting to come on this "course" to be included:
Car balance
Steering by throttle
4 Wheel drift
figure of 8 doughnuts
Saving Car from t0o fast in
"Drifting"
"J Turns"
