EvilDaifu Cruise Whore Moderating Team 5,130 Member For: 19y 7m 7d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 17/10/07 03:40 AM Share Posted 17/10/07 03:40 AM (edited) Hi Guys,We did a skidpan day with Driver Dynamics in 2006 and Kev Flynn who runs and owns Driver Dynamics has let me know that they have a heavily discounted Advanced Driving Course (possibly cos they have had some corporate or other club pull out) so was wondering if anyone here would be interested in this? Here are the details as I have them so far below. Feel free to contact Kev directly. I will also try to get more info re timing on the day, number of participants, etc.Driver Dynamics Advanced Car Control and Vehicle Dynamics CourseWhere: Sandown International Raceway When: Sat 19th January 2008 - 8:30a to 4:30pmCost: Special Discounted Price $185 pp (normally costs $260 pp)Groups of 10 cars and there are 7 groups all together on the day. So, prolly best if you guys that want to go, form a group of 10 cars - like forming a table at a dance , that way you can all be together as you rotate around the activities. All starts at the same time - 8:30am in the morning. So if you want, put your name down here as well to say you are in the FordXR6Turbo group - that way we know when the group starts to fill. However, IMPORTANT - contact Kev directly to make a booking and pay Kev directly. The group list here is only to give an indication only of how the group is filling up.No spectators unfortunately, so can only have the driver in the car, no passengers and no by-standers watching - it is a driving course and not a spectator event.And, as many of you have gathered, the good part is you get to learn in your car and get a feel for the dynamics of your own car and learn to control your car better.A course designed for drivers who wish to take their driving skills to the next level. Driver Dynamics Advanced Car Control Course gives you the opportunity to push a little harder, learn more technical and advanced vehicle dynamics, and explore ‘high end’ vehicle control skills at the critical limit, but in a safe and non threatening environment. We guarantee more driving time and better value for money than any comparable course. This course requires concentration and commitment right up to the last minute, and best of all it’s great fun!What’s covered in Advanced Car Control and Vehicle Dynamics Course- An in depth analysis of the physical skills; seating, steering, vision, braking, accelerating, use of transmission - Advanced vehicle dynamics theory - Practical advanced vehicle dynamics - Highway speed emergency braking for both ABS and non ABS - Highway speed emergency corner braking in both wet and dry - High Speed Evasive Lane Changes - Vehicle stability control exercises on our unique Split Surface - Understeer / Oversteer causes, control, and prevention - Emergency multiple direction changes This course will be conducted by full-time professional, qualified, certificate 3 and certificate 4 advanced driver trainers.The cost of this course also includes morning tea, lunch, soft drinks.Note that no further discounts will apply to this course.Please contact us via email driverdynamics@optusnet.com.au or telephone Kev 0413 540 197Please note:- Participants do not need to have completed a Defensive Driving Course to participate in this course.FordXR6Turbo Group (Kev, please note )1. BDAZLA (booked)2. Headsex (booked)3. HiNRG (booked)4. XRTPSI 5. SCRIBR6. djmickyg7. XRDOSE8. AceofSpades9. PSIFRK10. JmanNow there are 11 here but I dont know who has paid up and who hasnt so the first group of 10 cars will really be made up of who has paid up for the course. Doesn't mean you cant do it of course, just means you may not be with the group of guys from the forum.
