Information for Students
There are a very limited number of student slots available for this event to ensure maximum seat time.
This is a half day event with morning and afternoon sessions available. Plan to arrive by 45 minutes before your start time. End of day will be noon for the morning session and 5 PM for the afternoon session.
Overview
Theory – Each session begins with a “chalk talk”, wherein our instructors explain vehicle dynamics, the techniques students will be taught, and summarize the exercises for the day.
Skid Pad – The practical exercises include spending part of the session on the skid pad learning and practicing: understeer, oversteer, throttle steering, and power-slides. These basic building blocks are key to learning how to bring your car under control when the unexpected happens and how to establish a balanced cornering attitude.
Car Control Course – The practical exercises also include spending part of the session on the closed-loop handling course. Here, you will put your skidpad practice to the test and build new skills: trail-braking, inducing rotation, countering understeer, and applying oversteer.
