What you can expect
Get ready for a full day of fun with a drift experience that’s all sorted for you from start to finish. Led by stunt driver and MAD MAX double Eugene Arendsen, you’ll hop into a professionally prepared drift car and spend the day learning the basics right through to more advanced drifting techniques. With fuel, lunch, drinks, snacks and, of course, plenty of tyres included, all you need to bring is your enthusiasm and a basic understanding of manual driving. You’ll share the car with a small group of fellow drivers and enjoy relaxed, supportive coaching with a professional instructor by your side the whole time.
As the day rolls on, you’ll try your hand at handbrake slides, barrel turns and drift doughnuts before taking on the exciting Driftkhana course to put everything you’ve learnt into action. To top it all off, you’ll finish with a bonus Drift Battle Lap, where the pros show you how it’s really done. It’s a big day, including lunch, drinks and snacks while packed with laughs, confidence‑boosting moments and plenty of stories to take home, a great value, no‑fuss way to try something new and unforgettable.
