1:1 Drifting Tuition - Drift Limits

1:1 Drifting Tuition

Our dedicated world class drift training programmes have been developed by our pro-drivers to coach our guests with a fully tailored itinerary to suit requirements based on our guests previous driving experience and end goals. The art of learning how to drift is hugley technique based and requires precision and knowledge but most importantly a lot of practice!

We can progress driver abilities from a complete novice all the way to preparing students to be instantly competitive when entering a professional drift competition. We have a diverse range of drift vehicles with varying handling setups to suit driver preference. Our challenging drift circuit Memphis features a street inspired course layout with three Zen garden roundabouts and a hero line, where you can run the wall – the ultimate test of proximity.


 

Drift Training - 5 Fundamentals

1. Line

One of the most important factors when it comes to judging a drift competition is the line. This is defined as the position of the drift car in the corner. Points will be deducted from the driver if they move off the optimum line.

2. Speed

Points will be be highly rewarded to a professional drifter who can leave his opponent behind meaning they never close the gap in the chase while twinning. This forward traction and speed is crucial for competition drifting.

3. Angle

Drift competitors are marked on the angle of the drift car throughout the course and how the steering angle is maintained in the corner.

4. Style

One of the major factors which separates drifting from conventional motorsport competition is the score is considered partly subjective – Style Points! This is the art of drifting where car and driver shows: aggression, fluidity and entertainment value.

5. Proximity

Proximity is the inch perfect precision needed for drift drivers to manipulate their cars into the marked clipping points whilst going fully sideways! Our circuit features 6 clipping soft balls hanging away from the concrete wall, perfect for training wall clips with less risk of damaging the cars!
