Ready to take your driving to the next level? Come join us at Elko Drift School for a full day of instruction, seat time, and fun. Whether it’s your very first time sliding or you’ve already got some experience, we’ll help you build skills, gain confidence, and get the most out of your car.
You’ll start the day with a driver’s meeting, followed by tech inspection and a classroom session covering drift fundamentals, safety, and track rules. Then it’s time to hit the track with multiple driving sessions throughout the day. Instructors will be on hand to give feedback and answer questions to make sure you progress.
