About DRIFTKAI

India's most premium drift school.

DRIFTKAI teaches drivers control, skill and confidence through expert instruction and real time at the wheel. Whether you are a beginner, want to improve your skills or just want a fun weekend with drift cars, we have a course to suit you. World-class certified trainers. Our own purpose-built BMW fleet. A full day at our drift school is built around one idea: every driver leaves driving better than they arrived.

  • Certified trainers.

    Taught by people who are certified to train

    BMW-certified instructors and a trainer certified by Pro Drift Academy, UAE, who competes as a drift athlete. In all, massive coaching experience.

  • Our own cars.

    A purpose-built BMW fleet

    Coilover suspension, locked and limited-slip differentials, competition rubber, and a dedicated service crew on site all day keeping every car ready.

  • The highest seat time.

    A full day at the wheel

    Nine coached sessions, different zones running in parallel, and unlimited tyres included, so the driving keeps going from morning to evening.

  • Premium hospitality.

    Premium and top-notch

    All-inclusive: a 5-star stay, airport and venue transfers, meals and refreshments for you and your companion, and DRIFTKAI merchandise to take home.

The trainers

Certified. Competing. Teaching.

DRIFTKAI was built by people who drift, compete and teach for a living. Our trainers hold manufacturer and academy certification, and they bring competition experience into every session. Coaching by radio on every lap, and you work with more than one across the day, so you get more than one way of seeing the same problem.

    Rallying gave him a natural feel for car control, and drifting followed. To take it further he trained in Europe and earned his European drift licence. He is also a certified BMW Level 1 Trainer, qualified in Germany, and has coached with BMW since 2022.

    At DRIFTKAI he does more than drive. He is trained to teach, breaking car control down so students build real skill rather than just chase smoke.

    His own drift car is a purpose-built BMW 330i. It's a project that never stops: he keeps upgrading it, reworking it and testing new ideas on it, and what he learns goes straight into how he teaches.
