demuire Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 (edited) We have another one booked, it will be the normal format for a full daydriver training course at Mt Cotton Driver Training Centre (see www.sideline.org.au for course info). Cost will be $162 per person including lunch. Please email any reservations and enquiries to [email protected]. Also note, that this is Father's Day, so why not register your Dad as well. As usual, don't take too long to book as these spots don't last long. Teddy went on a course like this a few weeks ago, and I believe he had a lot of fun and learnt a lot. If nothing else at all, he picked up a fair bit of time in the closing autocross, I believe he was even like the 2nd or 3rd fastest driver out on the day! I'm not 100% sure if I'll be there at this stage, but whether I'm there or not I'm sure the instructors will give you heaps of hints and instruction to improve your driving, both from a safety point of view and from a performance point of view. All the instructors have some sort of background in motor racing. Edited August 8, 2005 by demuire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demuire Posted August 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Well, it's not exactly a track... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMsGPTurbo Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Is it a big wet pad? and a figure 8 track from what I saw from the videos? do you get to go around the mount cotton track? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Its not about speed, its about using the steering wheel and that break pedal. I had fun, and i think i did pretty good considering how much "car time ©" i've had. Id do it again, but money is a crappa.. Grr.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMsGPTurbo Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Do u think I should just wait for my next car which will be twin turbo and rwd, and I have 100% no idea how to drive it when traction is lost (from what I gather completely the opposite to FWD) I'm not saying I'm the best FWD driver out there but I do know how to drive one quickly and I would benefit on learning some new things.. however I would benefit alot more from learning to drive a RWD... damn that sounds lame hhehe :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Jamie Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 do it in any car. it's not about the car, it's about the driving. from what fook's told me, you'd be surprised of the number of crappy stock cars that people get out there and absolutely kick ass in. quit saying "one day" just do it :y: do you need a road regsitered car to go in one of these days?

demuire Posted August 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 (edited) Yes, it's about the driving. However, I would recommend that you do it in the car you drive daily, because that's the car we want you to learn how to drive. That said, if you don't have a car, or you don't like your car for some reason, you can drive another car. You just probably won't get quite as much benefit from the course, since chances are when you do find you need to use the skills, you'll be in your own car, and not the other. Nick: Unusual. If you don't get a reply by tomorrow evening let me know, I'll chase Ted up about it. I'm fairly certain that by lunchtime today, at least 5 of the spots were gone.
