All owners will be receiving a letter+application form for this program soon.

Non-owners will have to find some owner friend to enjoy the half-price discount.

1. Slalom

The slalom involves steering the vehicle around a row of cones. The aim is not to cover the course as quickly as possible, but as smoothly as possible. This exercise clearly demonstrates the importance of holding and controlling the steering wheel correctly, while maintaining a correct driving position.

2. Braking

The braking exercise simulates a potentially dangerous situation in which it is necessary to evade an obstacle and then continue in the same lane. Participants will learn about the forces and dynamics that are released when the vehicle skids as a result of an emergency manoeuvre, even when traveling at low speed. The effects of ESP are demonstrated with and without electronic aids.

3. Evasive ABS braking

Participants will experience the kinds of situations that push ABS to its limits, as well as the influence of road speed and inappropriate reactions (for example, excessive steering movements). Participants will learn how to co-ordinate hard braking and smooth steering movements to prevent under steer or skidding.

4. Cornering

Participants will experience the cause of under steer and over steer, as well as the effect of extreme driver behaviour when cornering.

5. Braking on differing surfaces

This exercise will demonstrate an outstanding example of the effect of ABS on two differing road surfaces. Participants will experience how a vehicle reacts in the event of emergency braking on a road surface that that is slippery on one side. This exercise is done with and without ABS in order to show how ABS maintains both steer ability and stability.

6. Lane Change

The lane change exercise simulates a potentially dangerous situation in which it is necessary to evade an obstacle and then continue in the same lane. Participants will experience the forces and dynamics that are released when the vehicle skids as a result of an evasive manoeuvre. The effects of ESP are demonstrated by comparison with a vehicle without ESP.

7. Final Exercise

Participants will take a test at the end of the training course. It will be a combination of all the exercises done earlier during the day; a perfect chance to put all skills to the test.
