    If you ask on their facebook page you'd get an answer quicker than emailing them

    Well I know id be viewed as biased lads cos Im an instructor at the Prodrift Academy, but Id rather give no advice than bad advice. From my own experience Ive seen people come into the academy at 9 o clock in the morning having never even driven a rear wheel drive car and by 1 o clock theyre drifting, and by 4 or 5 theyre starting to hone their skills. The system of starting at the basics and working our way up really works and theres no holding back what you can do with the cars, apart from blatant over revving when theres no need for it, but thats a bad habit anyway should you ever get your own car so it's good to knock it out of a driver early.
    All of the instructors are or have been top level drivers and so they can pass on some of the finer skills and little techniques theyve most likely thought themselves over the last number of years. At the end of the day we make a track and theres a competition which is judged by the instructors. But above all, its a great craic of a day out, especially with a few friends, and something youll remember for a long long time, and if it gets you into drifting then the rest will be history!

    Good to get a bit of info from on of the instructors

    How much seat time does each person get?

    Theres 2 or 3 of us that want to do it. Do we just buy the vouchers on the site and then wait to be called for a date? How do we know we'd all end up going on the same date?
