A Gift for Dad Who Has Everything: Drifting in Buenos Aires

Frequently asked questions

My dad is over 60 — can he take the class?

Yes. There is no age limit: the circuit is private and closed, and the class runs at the student's pace with the instructor alongside on every lap. The fitness required is the same as for regular street driving. House rule: if he wants to stop, we stop.

My dad has driven automatic all his life — will he manage?

Yes. 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.

Can I come along and film my dad?

Yes: each student can bring up to 3 companions, who watch and film from a designated safe zone. And for a professional keepsake, the 60-minute package includes an edited video of his day.

How much does the gift cost and what does it include?

Drift Intro: $300 USD (30 minutes at the wheel). Drift Experience: $500 USD (60 minutes plus edited video). Pro Driver course: $2000 USD (5 sessions). Everything includes car, fuel, tyres and helmet. Payment 100% upfront: US dollar cash, pesos at the MEP rate or USDT.

How does the gift voucher arrive and how long is it valid?

The digital voucher arrives via WhatsApp within 5 to 15 minutes of full payment, ready to print or forward. It stays valid for 12 months and can be transferred once to another person, so dad picks his date at leisure.

What if the chosen date turns out not to work for him?

Rescheduling is free with 48 hours or more notice. Also, within 10 calendar days of purchase and giving 24 hours notice before the class, the statutory withdrawal right applies with a full refund (Argentine Law 24.240, art. 34).
