Care for a wet skidpan day? (Sydney)

I would love to go for a wet skidpan day? I hope we can arrange something for RX8s skidpan day. If not, then I might go alone. December or January?

Here is what auto-motion has to offer. $125, maybe cheaper for group.



PHASE TWO - WET SKID PAN

Have you wondered at the skill of top rally drivers, TV stunt drivers and track racers? Their ability to set a car into a slide, control the machine and recover it within inches of disaster is a skill that you can learn.

Auto-Motion's Phase 2 Slide Control courses allow you to drive your car on our wet and slippery skid pan, exploring the secrets of precision car control. Our instructors will take you step by step, unlocking your ability to understand a cars natural slide tendencies. You will soon discover that most cars hold no surprises for a driver, once you have the power of knowledge.

Our courses are high intensity, four hour, half day sessions. You will have information overload that will take time to digest. The only real way to learn slide control is practice, so a half day rate allows you to attend as many times as you wish. Of course full days are available as well.
