OK...further to the recent thread, CptSideways has come up with a prelimary plan to provide some "steer from the rear" training to allow us to be better prepaired for the slippery conditions to come.

Basically, the deal is as follows:-

Location: Silverstone
Date: A weekday before year end
Cost: £1400 + £150 per instructor (can teach 5-7 drivers)

So, assuming we get 15 takers, that equates to approx £115.

Edit: Hopefully we can get 15 HSVs/Monaros, but if not, may open up to other marques, like the Corvettes.

Below is the list of attendees and acknowledgement of 22nd Jan

B055, just one question - Do we use our own cars? (You can delete this post and add the answer to the original post if you like)

Is it one of the silverstone listed courses or a special, as they use their own cars with driver height and weight limits?

Bo55, is this Drift or Skid pan as in I assume "drift" would be on std tarmac and "skid" on a prepared/greasy/wet/slippery surface? Also the misses has expressed an interest is it open to partners?

Basically, it will be some sort of "Oversteer Correction & Inducing" type thing. I will ask CptSideways to provide further details.

I sure partners would be allowed to come and watch but would have to "take a place" if they wanted actual training.

Sadly guys, I do not know the answers, I have asked CptSideways to pop in and have a chat if he's got a spare moment.
