Drift School?? which one?

[C-Rex]

Everything is relative..

If you have alot of experience of driving and are a pretty compitent driver with proper cop on and car control, you are best off going straight on out there and tackle it yourself, its pretty easy once ya start into it..

If you are anyway doubting yourself and think you'd prefer some instruction from 'pros' definately do a school day they will tell you how to position the car brake, steering and throttle control etc And will be there with you so you have less chance of fucking up..



When you have lads that think they are better than they are though it makes for some fun viewing

Cheers man, I probably could do with a lesson alright. I'd be confident enough i'd say.. i'll just take it handy for the first few.. few power overs.. start to build it up.

Hopefully my yoke won't be in a write off pic up on the site in the "Mondello After thoughts" hahaha

My two cents - and this isnt aimed at anyone!

I think going to something like a PD academy day would be really beneficial. Alot of people out there think they can steer and probably think they can drift also.

Learning or at least getting direction from some of the Pro drivers will help with technique. We all have bad habits but getting some quality tutition is going to help your drifting alot imo.

Im definitely going to do a PD Academy day next year at some point. Im very confident about my driving and i have competed in rally events and have my rally license. I know the theory of how to drift but tbh i think learning from a Pro like Mike Fitz or Peden Neilsen would be far more beneificial than trying to go out and do it on my own.

I presume if you never drifted and never had even a RWD, its better with the instructor and thats what the thread is all about ? Drift school thing ?

We were not all born to go sideways

In PD Academy the instructor is beside you ALL the time in the car !

are you for real????????
if you read the thread you'll see that they want to go somewhere else than mondello..
if he clearly stated in his 1st post that they have cars to do a drift day.
he obviously got mixed up.... i don't thing that the fact of PD ACADEMY OR DRIFT SCHOOL would be mentioned..
hence the reason i asked them did they have there own cars..??
and where in IRELAND is going to get "THIS INSTRUCTOR" person sitting beside you in your own car??
