Pip - I thought it would be easier to manage with a new thread. Here's the overview for interested parties:

Learn the secrets of over limit handling using your car and our Caterham 7.

A 5.5 hour experience for 4 owners covering the building blocks of vehicle control at grip limit.

A fast moving sideways experience. Designed to build on the skills learnt on the Performance and Cornering Masterclass club days or as an introduction to the techniques of over grip limit driving for the novice, our instructors will tailor the training to your level of experience.

Understand and practice the building blocks of over grip limit driving. It is not just nailing the accelerator and relying on instinct. A drift is the culmination of many core skills polarized into one extreme exercise. All explained and demonstrated by your instructor and practiced by you.

Enjoy the challenge of our very sideways Caterham, and experience the dynamic characteristics and capability of your own car as it realises its true potential at grip limit. Invaluable information for those owners wanting to maximise its potential and enjoyment of their car on track.

Your training session will include presentations on:
Understeer
Oversteer
Lift Off Oversteer
Roll Oversteer
Weight Transfer at Turn In
Tyre Grip Trade Off
Identifying Grip Limit
Breaking Traction

Your training will include an experience of a wetted as well as a dry surface on the Steering Pad/Mile Straight Apron at the Millbrook Proving Ground.

There will also be a bottle of Champagne for the best Drifting God on the day.

Come on where are all the driving Gods? Surely we cannot be a forum full of drivers over 18st or taller than 6ft 4 inch....

Perhaps we are all shorties < 5ft ?????

Did it about two years ago, great fun and the CATDT folks are top notch.

Is there still space on this?

Sorry for the delay in posting, just back from a weekend away in Madrid visiting the Fernando Alonso Exhibition - absolutely fantastic if you're an F1 fan, or just of dedicated athletes :thumbs:

Yes Gav there is still a space or two from my checks. Post up or drop me a PM if you'd like to join Pip and Donkey :)

& Stuart ... don't come the day before as you'll have missed your course ... it's the month before :grin:

Hi Jo, oops, knew it was Feb so no risk there, just didn't read the date for this properly.

Sorry.....can't do. Didn't realise it was a Sunday.
 
As the current holder of the Clarkey's Knob silver trophy I fancy that bottle of champagne trouble is the date conflicts with my return for Spa.

Interested in a further date :thumb:

I shan't ask about the trophy :lol:

There's a possible group on Sunday 20th April (Easter Sunday). If that's of interest drop me a PM.
