Drifting Experiences

Ready to learn to drift in a specialised drift car? You'll be taught the basics such as power slides, drift control and drift braking techniques. A high revving, tyre burning drift experience is one of the most exciting driving experiences out there.

Drifting is the art of driving at high speeds with the rear tyres of the vehicle sliding, whilst retaining control. On our drift experiences, we use a number of specially prepared drifting cars such as the Lexus IS2000, Nissan Skyline and 350Z, BMW M3, Caterham, Mazda Westfields and Porsche Caymans. These drift schools and events run at drift tracks across the country. Including Brands Hatch (Kent), Bovingdon Airfield (Hertfordshire) with Drift Limits, Seighford Driving Centre (Staffordshire), Rye House Raceway (Herts) and Yarmouth Raceway (Norfolk). With Yarmouth Raceway also hosting drift championships, amongst other activities.

Our action-packed drifting driving experience days are designed to teach you the basics and help develop your skills until you are a fully-fledged drifter!

The average driver would no doubt begin to panic if their car started to slide sideways. But with drifting, this is the main objective. By learning to drift in a controlled environment, drivers are actually gaining valuable transferable skills that can be used in the real world should they inadvertently lose control of their car.

The quality of the drifting, for both professionals and amateurs, is judged on angles, speed, style and how well a line is maintained when powering through a corner sideways. The best cars for drifting are rear-wheel drive, manual cars with a handbrake. They don't need to be the most powerful cars in a fleet - with the 200SX being a firm favourite - but you could get a Ferrari to drift if you really wanted to.

From experienced professionals to hobbyists, to those who just want to give it a go, all manner of people are enjoying this unique way of driving. The driving style of drifting originated in the 1970s in Japan and since then, has spread worldwide, with drifting as a form of motorsport, and competitive drifting competitions becoming increasingly popular.
