Wet Handling Day - Rockingham - 12th May 2012
Discussion
Hi all,
The Alpina club is holding another wet handling day at Rockingham in May.
This is a fantastic opportunity to find your cars limits on Rockingham's unique wet grip facility:
"Rockingham’s dynamic Wet Grip Area will push you beyond the limit in a unique controlled environment.
Combining a kick plate, water walls and a polished surface, so smooth it’s like ice, it’s the perfect place to hone advanced driving skills and demonstrate the latest in automotive safety technology.
Our Wet Grip Area was designed in conjunction with MIRA consultants, to meet exacting manufacturer testing and driver training standards.
The Wet Grip Area is perfect for driver training or for giving dealers and customers the chance to try out the benefits of new product developments in a safe manner."
It's not just a skid pan event, it's a full skid, drift, spin and slide session!
Tutoring is included and the wear to tyres is negligible due to the surfaces being treated.
The sessions run either am or pm and cost £125 per car for each session. Tuition is included and the tutors will assist you as much or as little as you require. Neil at the Alpina Register has somehow managed to keep the cost to the same figure as previous years!
This will be my fourth attendance which should give you an idea of how much fun it is.
Any marques are welcome, follow the link below to the Alpina forum to get your name down for one of these sessions!
