Half Day Rally Experience Full Schedule
09:00: Arrival, Paperwork, Meet the Team
Arrive at Prodriver Rally School. Meet the rest of the group on the course with you today, grab some refreshments (provided for you by our crew), complete your paperwork (a quick ID check, CovidSafe check-in, and participation agreement) then meet your instructor for the day.
09:15: Briefings and Equipment
Time to focus as your instructors brief you and the group on the basic skills and techniques of Rally Driving that you’ll be learning today, along with health and safety protocols and instructions. You’ll also grab a racesuit, helmet (with built-in microphone and headphones – rally cars are noisy!), and be assigned to a team for the day. Our support crew will be there to guide you through all this, so you can relax and focus on having fun.
We don’t provide footwear or gloves, but you’re welcome to bring your own, as long as they comply with our on-course regulations. The Chief Instructor and/or Course Controller on the day will have final say over what is/isn’t allowed, based on health and safety.
09:45: Time to Drive
You’re straight in the driving seat. Once you’re safely and comfortably strapped in with the assistance of our crew, you’ll fire up your Rally Car for the day and get started on the first of three sessions taking you through three key elements of Rally driving. You’ll practice and perfect hand brake turns, controlled opposite-lock slides, and get to grips with controlling understeer and oversteer. You’ll start to understand just how much a car can really do in capable hands.
12:00: Ride of a Lifetime
Now you’ve completed your rally driving course and understand some of the skills needed to be a rally driver, it’s time to swap places and experience the thrill of a high-speed run through the entire course with your instructor at the wheel. You’ll know the course well at this point, so you’ll have the option to call out the corners for your driver like a Co-Driver does (we’ll even give you the ‘pace notes’ for the course), but we won’t judge you if you decide to just sit back and enjoy the ride! A high-speed passenger ride with a professional driver is a truly incredible experience, and one not to be missed.
12:30: De-brief and Presentation. (Over Lunch)
Time to enjoy some food as your instructors and crew join you over lunch and make themselves available for fifteen minutes or so afterwards to chat and answer any questions you might have about your day.
13:00: Course finishes
Once you’ve checked out of the course for the day, you’ll have a chance to grab yourself some official Prodriver swag including: T-shirts, Hoodies, bags, and hats!
