Drift 101

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Drift 101. I bought a full day lesson for my husband as a birthday gift and he told me it was one of the best gifts he has ever received. The instructors were amazing and provided great insight on how to drift.

Fantastic experience: Had a great day with instructors Naoki and Ruben. These guys are experts and make it easy to understand and get confidence. The cars are not luxury but are set up to be raw and ready to drift. Never done this before except the odd donut in a parking lot Today I can say I learned the basics of driving drifting throttle and steering We did multiple track Layouts thru out the day. Soooo much fun and I now smell Like gas and rubber , luv it Thank you Drift 101

Fantastic experience: I learned a lot about drifting from both Naoki and Ruben, coming from a sim-only background. They pinpointed the areas in which my sim experience was incorrect compared to real life and focused on them. I got a very important life lesson from Naoki. Highly recommend Drift 101, and will definitely be back next time I'm in the area.

Fantastic experience: So I wanted to write this as soon as I got home today because it was an incredible day of driving. I’ve been a car enthusiast for over 20 years and have participated in autocross, some oval track stuff and the occasional invite on a track but I’ve never slid a car. Maybe a donut here and there but never grabbed an e brake or clutch kicked… until today. The guy were super cool, friendly and very knowledgeable. The cars they had are the standard issue 240s with upgraded e brakes and it was perfect for the course. Going from throttle work to 2nd gear slides all within the same day was incredible. Now it might seem a tad pricey BUT you get a massive amount of seat time and you will walk away with a huge smile. Bring water and lunch and if you are solo a camera and tripod or even a go pro to mount to your car. Well worth keeping the memories and seeing the progress throughout the day. My nose is still stuffy with tire smoke and I’m loving it. Can’t wait to go back!

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent day at Drift101. The exercises highlighted a wide range of skills required for drifting and the instruction was very detailed. There was one other person in my class and each of us received feedback tailored specifically to our strengths and weaknesses during each session. The teaching method is very straightforward/easy to understand and I saw instant results with each bit of feedback. I have moderate experience with road course track days but had never drifted before. It was challenging at first but by the end I saw significant improvement. The choice of exercises throughout the day flowed well. They progressively built upon each technique we were taught and our personal performance/progression. You get plenty of seat time, balanced with natural conversation to recap and prepare for each exercise. I arrived looking to improve my car control and have a good time but left a definite fan of drifting with a ton of things to think about that will improve my driving in both grip and drift.
