The two-day stunt course will run on September 17th-18th with trainer Joe Condren in Co. Galway. Spaces are available for 20 participants and cost €500.
The course is run and designed promote safe precision driving in a controlled fashion, and to develop the abilities of Irish stunt performers.
Day One:
All participants will first participate in a class room tutorial where they will learn the basic mechanics of a motor vehicle, followed by a guided description and show case of the elements of a vehicle that directly relate to stunt driving and how they can affect the performance of the vehicle while performing a stunt and the safety of that vehicle while performing that action.
The second section of the course will have the participants performing car control techniques and vehicle recovery. When all students are comfortable with car handling they will progress to precision stunt driving skills, forward salom, forward 180, reverse 180, reverse salom and sliding box parking.
Day Two:
Participants will spend the morning reviewing the previous days skills both class room and practical, now the participants will have to use all their new skills to perform on a special laid out course of cones and tyres where they will have to perform all learned skills against a clock. When participants have performed this course they will now re create some actual precision driving stunts where they will first sit in with the instructors and then alone. Only if participants perform all the above skills to an overall pass rate of 85% or over will they receive a certificate from Driven to perfection.
Requirements:
The age limit is 17 years old. A full licence is not required but any non competent driver will not benefit fully from the course so it would be advised to have a competent skill level of driving.
