Skid Pan

You won’t regret taking a morning out to learn how to handle a car in low-grip circumstances. At the skid pan course, you’ll experience what it feels like to skid in both front and rear-wheel drive vehicles, and learn how to manage skids. This great half-day session is held at the DriveTech facility at Castle Combe. It’s a realistic and effective way to learn Skid Control techniques in a safe environment, improving your driving skills in low-grip conditions. The courses are great fun, and DriveTech experts will show you how to react to adverse conditions and regain control!
