The graduate does not have a driving licence yet — can he take the class?

Yes. The circuit is private and closed, there is no public-road driving, so no licence or prior experience is needed. If he is under 18, a parent's or guardian's authorization is required, and the instructor rides alongside on every lap.

How much does each person chip in if a group of friends buys the gift?

The 30-minute Drift Intro costs $300 USD: between 6 friends that is $50 each; between 10, it is $30. The $500 USD Drift Experience, with 60 minutes and an edited video, works out at $50 a head between 10. One person writes on WhatsApp, pays and receives the voucher for the whole group.

Can the friends come and watch him drift?

Yes: companions watch and film from a safe zone of the circuit. Watching the graduate slide the BMW sideways is half the gift. Tell us on WhatsApp how many you are and we coordinate it.

Is there time if the graduation dinner is this week?

Yes: the voucher is digital and arrives via WhatsApp the same day, ready to show at the dinner or forward to the group. The class itself is scheduled later, whenever the graduate picks a date — the voucher is valid for 12 months.

What if the graduate cannot drive a manual?

Not a problem. The BMW E36 is manual, but the clutch is basically just for pulling away: in the slide you work the steering and throttle in a fixed gear, with the instructor guiding every step from the seat beside him.

How long is the gift voucher valid?

Twelve months from purchase. A gift handed over at the December dinner can be used in high summer, before college starts, or whenever the graduate wants within the year. The exact circuit location is confirmed via WhatsApp when booking the date.

A Gift for a High-School or College Graduate: Drifting

By Dmitrii McCarthy

A gift for a high-school or college graduate: drifting in Buenos Aires

This article is currently available in Spanish. A native English version is coming soon. Quick summary: the classic end-of-year problem — a friend, son or nephew graduates and nobody knows what to give. The gift that lands at 17-18: a drift class. He drives a prepared BMW E36 328i, rear-wheel drive, on a closed circuit on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, one-on-one with a professional instructor beside him on every lap. No driving licence needed (private closed track); minors can take the class with a parent's or guardian's authorization. The group angle is the best part: the 30-minute Drift Intro costs $300 USD — split between six friends that is $50 each. The 60-minute Drift Experience is $500 USD and includes an edited video of his day. The digital voucher arrives via WhatsApp, stays valid for 12 months, and payment is in USD, ARS at the MEP rate or USDT. Graduation season in Argentina peaks in November-December, so write a few days before the dinner or ceremony.
