Safety and indemnity.

Drifting is a motorsport. How we keep the day safe, and what you agree to before you drive.

The risks

Drifting means driving a powerful car past the limit of grip, on purpose. Even with good coaching and well-kept cars, it carries a risk of injury to you and of damage to the car and to property.

How we keep it safe

  • Certified trainers, coaching you by radio on every lap
  • One live car in each working zone, and each zone with its own trainer
  • All safety equipment and helmets, included in every price
  • A dedicated service crew on site all day, keeping every car ready

The declaration you sign

Before you drive, you sign a participant declaration and indemnity at the venue. In plain words, by signing it you confirm that:

  • You understand the risks of drifting and choose to take part
  • The health information you've given us is true, and you're fit to drive
  • You'll follow your trainers' instructions and the circuit's rules
  • You won't drive after alcohol, drugs or medicine that affects driving
  • You won't hold DRIFTKAI, its trainers or the venue responsible for injury, loss or damage while you take part, except where the law doesn't allow that

It also says who pays if a car is damaged. Ask us for the full text at any time before your course.

Who can drive

Drivers must be 18 or over and hold a valid car driving licence. No previous drifting experience is needed.

Your health

Tell us before the day about any medical condition, injury or medicine that could affect your driving. If you're unsure, check with your doctor before you book.

What to wear and bring

We'll tell you what to wear and what to bring when we confirm your booking. Helmets and all safety equipment are provided.

On the day

Your trainer can pause a session, or stop you driving, if it isn't safe: because of the weather, the track, or the way a car is being driven.
