Default Learning to drive like Hyperdrive

Recently got into the Hyperdrive series on Netflix. Can't believe its been out since 2019 and I've never noticed it. Its got me thinking it might be fun, and useful?, to learn some of the manoeuvres.

Are there any recommended driving schools in Melb which teaches that sort of stuff? Not talking about serious competition level, but just a bit of fun and to learn something new. Preferably something that has different levels of difficulty progression, rather than just a one day course.


(Not looking for schools operating out of maccas carparks in melton, noble park or the likes)

Default Re: Learning to drive like Hyperdrive

Having not seen the show and the likelihood of me getting netflix is remote so I'm not sure what kind of 'maneuver's' you're speaking of.
But if you're after some driver training in a safe, relaxed environment have a look at Motorkhana.

You'll need a basic motorsport license, a roadworthy car, a willingness to learn and in return the other members will be happy to help and instruct.

Thanks, I'll take a look at them. What does it take to get a motorsport license? I have a helmet from the drag racing days ready to go

Not sure what you call it, its not pure drifting or stunt driving, but they run obstacle courses.

Heres a few clips from the show. Obviously they are pros and can do it at 80-100mph, I'd be happy just to learn how to do some of this around witches hats at 60-80kmh.
