The Platinum* anti-skid course

Available for two people booking together (discounted rate applicable). 

Alternatively can be taken over 2 hours on a one to one basis.

All of our anti-skid tuition sessions are well established as excellent courses for teaching the detection and control of front & rear wheel skids, some courses also including emergency braking techniques. However we have for some time been asked by our customers for more experience and support in handling excessive slides under controlled conditions. Therefore we developed the Platinum course to cover this extra criteria. The use of two cars set up dynamically different during the session and the extra time to practice the skills being taught are a major feature of this course. Undoubtedly those drivers who have high performance cars  would benefit from this form of tuition to increase their feel for a car in a slide. As in all our courses the training is undertaken at a relatively low speed in excessively slippery conditions to build confidence and skill.

CONTENT

An in depth classroom session covering vehicle dynamics in relation to skids their cause and control and vehicle handling in general. Followed by a practical demonstration from the instructor covering the classroom theory. Then you will be coached in the finer points of car control including power slides, as well as covering the basics of front and rear wheel skid detection and control + braking techniques.

To finish, a classroom de-brief will be held and certificates issued, proving participation in this valuable course of instruction. 

 

*This course is available on a one to one basis over a 2hrs session or for 3hrs on a two to one basis

COURSE "A" (one to one tuition)

This popular course covers front and rear wheel skids, plus braking techniques. 

For new and experienced drivers. 

As the name implies you have your own instructor for one hour of intensive instruction using one of our vehicles set up to simulate skids at speeds in excess of 50 mph, even though you are only travelling at 10 to 12 mph on the wet skid surface. This ensures complete safety during the tuition and improves the confidence of the pupil. (very short classroom session)
