Advanced Driver Training

[The Jester Of Oz]

Hey guys, does anyone know of any advanced cornering/braking courses that you can do in SA (similar to the kind of thing you can do for a motorbike)?

Everything I know about cornering etc has been developed by trial and error (although with no "damn, I just crashed my car" kind of errors) but I would rather learn how to do it all properly.

Thanks

ive got the detail somewhere, cost is about 200-300 for the day it isa deffensive driving course and they also offer advanced after that one as well. I tried to organise this awhile ago but got no real responce. Very worth while and makes insurance cheeper as well in most cases.

i will join if there is one.

let me know if you organise something matt

thx

[MattR]

maybe ill have to again. didnt get much interest last time due to costs involved. I think we only need 6people to do it.

[Nightcrawler]

you know I'm in

[The Jester Of Oz]

If you do organise something I will be in.

[Maxx]

already got 5 over here, we only need 1 more! :wavey:

[MattR]

Yeah but will this 5 be willing to pay the cost of around 200-300?

[9krpm]

the closer to the 200 mark the better matt

Jeez, for that sort of money, just hire out Malalla for a day and see how hard you can push the car until you get unstuck - same thing and more fun:p probably get a lot more time on the track that way too.

[MattR]

Yeah sort of steve just dont get the 'Proper' training, trial and error can only last so long. When I did the course bout 4years ago im sure its the best Thing I did

[Chris32]

I'd be keen, as long as its around $300 count me in no probs

[The Jester Of Oz]

$300 is not all that much, especially if it reduces insurance costs. Probably save more than $300 on insurance costs within a year or two.

[Maxx]

$300 is not a problem for me
