Drift & Gangster course
The experience courses at Polygon Brno are the entertaining side of safe-driving training. The drift course teaches controlled sliding, the gangster course the famous turn from the movies — both on low-grip surfaces that spare your car, and under instructor supervision.
The drift course
An intensive training in controlled sliding on low-grip surfaces that minimise wear on your car. The playful format teaches you to hold the car in a slide and to understand in detail how it behaves at the limit of grip — knowledge that pays off well beyond the training area.
Allow about three and a half hours: twenty minutes of basic theory and three hours behind the wheel. You drive your own car; loan cars are not available for this course.
The gangster course
The course is named after the iconic gangster turn from films and music videos. Nothing about it breaks the law — it is a half-day of training in your own car, polishing skills that ordinary traffic leaves no room for.
You learn the gangster turn on a slippery surface at slow speed, the same turn on wet asphalt at a brisker pace and, in cars with a mechanical handbrake, a full 360-degree spin. Normally the turn is taught only at the third level of the skid school; here you go straight to it.
Who it is for
These courses are for drivers who enjoy driving and want to do more — having completed skid school Compact or Intensiv helps but is not required. Both are available as a gift voucher valid for a year.
The Polygon publishes dates two to three months ahead and they fill up. Once you have a date, talk to us about a room — after half a day on a slippery surface it is good to have a bed a few minutes from the car.
