Date: Saturday Jan 7, 2023

Location: Beausejour Sports Complex (CPTC Oval Race Track)

Cost: $125 (includes lunch)

Spend an entire day learning and practicing ice driving and drifting skills, racing techniques and general winter driving car control with our experienced instructors. Take your car to the limit on a purpose build ice race track in a safe, controlled environment! Whether you intend on participating in the upcoming IceX ice drifting events, door to door sanctioned ice racing, or just want to learn advanced winter car control techniques, this is the event for you! 

This school is also a prerequisite for attaining your WCMA Ice Racing Competition License. 

There are 3 key components to the school and the students will be broken into appropriate groups and rotated through the 3 training areas throughout the day. Experienced instructors will be on site to provide hands on/passenger seat tutoring and advice throughout the day as requested by the student. Students will have the opportunity to go with instructors in their vehicle and/or have instructors in their car at times throughout the day. The key components include:

  • Classroom session - within a heated building at the track our chief instructor will discuss and review various aspects and skills pertaining to car control on ice like cornering, braking, drifting, racing lines, basic car preparation and track procedures like flags and track protocols.
  • Ice driving practice course - this will take place on the large ice parking lot beside the track and will include various practice exercises to help hone your ice driving skills. Traffic cones will be utilized to mark out a defined practice slalom course, figure eight, drifting zone, etc. Students will be allowed lots of practice time at various stations both with or without instructors basedon their preference.
  • Ice Oval Track - this is the large oval race track utilized for both snowmobile and ice racing competition events. Under the supervision of our track marshals, students will be free to open up their car's full potential and practice their ice racing and ice drifting skills in a safe (and legal) environment!

Lunch will be provided within one of the heated buildings onsite. 

Schedule/Times will be posted closer to the event date.

Register now to reserve your spot! Payments will only be posted just prior to the event.
