Skid Pan day (ACT) Sutton Driver Training centre

Postby ondman88 » Tue Sep 17, 2013 1:01 pm

I was wondering who would be interested in a skid pan day at Sutton driver training. If we can get 8-10 people it's only $130 each as opposed to $150.

If there is enough interest I'd be happy to organise it and work out deposits etc.

I just recently bought a turbo Mx5 and I want to learn more about it. It's Scary in the wet!!

Cheers,
Andre

Hi there. I am planning to pursue a professional as being a heavy vehicle driver. Therefore, I am looking for Accredited Driver Training that helped me get license at the end of training. Any suggestion?

Not entirely related but there's a motorkhana next door on the 30th of March...

Is only $40 assuming you have a CAMS licence and are a financial member of a related club, say the MX5 club of NSW for example.

Good luck. Your link goes to a site about light vehicle training. MX5s are even lighter than the vehicles in that link, as you would know as an owner of an MX5 Locost. You'll be better advised to search for heavy vehicle training if your plans require you to get such a license.

Not sure if spammer, thanks for reporting the post.

The business the link promotes has now been blocked.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

I'd been keen for a skid pan day. I could drum up some ACT friends. Would need to be March-April though - flat chat for the rest of this month

I won't ask why a club track day won't do.

However, the club is running a driver training day at MDTC in July, and we are trying to corral a few Canberra Chapter members for it. Some details on the Club website, PM me if you would like more info.

Nahh it was the guy logged in from an American IP trying to seem interested in "Accredited Driver Training" but linked to another random site.
