No Car, No Skills? You Can Still Live the Drift Experience

This article is currently available in Spanish. Quick summary: if you love cars but are not "in" the scene, none of the usual barriers actually stop you. You do not need your own car (we provide a drift-prepared BMW E36), you do not need insurance, you do not need to know how to drive a stick shift, and you do not need to know anyone in the scene. The instructor teaches you everything from zero, one student per turn, on a closed track in Buenos Aires.

Pricing starts from 300 USD for the intro and 500 USD for the full experience, booked with a 50% deposit by bank transfer, with the rest paid at the track on class day. For the full breakdown of the four barriers, what to bring, and how the first session works, see the Spanish version of this article, read about entering the car scene in 30 minutes, or check our drift gift options.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to bring my own car to try drifting?
No. The school provides the car: a rear-wheel-drive BMW E36 prepared for drift. You arrive empty-handed, put on the helmet and get in. You do not need your own car or anything prepped.
Do I need insurance or am I liable if I break something?
You do not need to take out any insurance: there is no track insurance, the mechanism is a contract, with normal wear included and the cost of each damage from misuse listed in advance. The car belongs to the school and is built to be abused, with a locked differential and adjusted suspension. You always drive on a closed track, with no traffic and nothing to crash into, with the instructor next to you.
How much does it cost to try drifting for the first time?
The intro starts from 300 USD and is the baptism: a short session to scratch the itch. The full experience is 500 USD, with more time in the car. The date is locked with a 50% deposit by bank transfer and the rest is paid at the track on class day; if you booked at a distance, you have 10 calendar days to withdraw with a full refund of everything paid, deposit included (art. 34 of Law 24.240). The site shows the peso equivalent next to each price.
What do I need to bring on the day of the experience?
Very little: comfortable clothes, closed thin-soled sneakers and a willingness to listen to the instructor. The helmet, the car and the track are provided by the school. No racing license or prior experience of any kind is required.
Do I need a driver license or a minimum age to try?
No license or registration is needed: you are not on public roads, but on a private, closed racetrack. Age does matter: for now it is 18+ only. Until the car has dual instructor pedals we do not take minors, neither driving nor as passengers. For the full detail on who can get behind the wheel, check the class requirements.
