Welcome - drive wisely
Driving on the airstrip on Saturday - organized driving on a closed track without a competitive element
Saturday from 10:00 (departure from the hotel at 09:00)
Straand MC hub organizes driver development courses at the airstrip in Fyresdal (closed area). The purpose of the course is to learn how to handle your own car better and further develop the drivers' technical driving skills. Planned exercises include precision driving with cone driving and exercises in effective braking (emergency braking) with an acceleration element. With the course, the organizer wants each participant to further develop their driving skills and become better acquainted with their own car and its characteristics. We want to contribute to the zero vision in the injury statistics on Norwegian roads by contributing to safer and more secure drivers. It is therefore important for us to reach out to different types of drivers and different types of cars. We want an individual focus where our goal is for each driver to develop based on the level they are at.
The course instructor, Vidar Lavoll and his team, have experience in conducting similar events, and he also led us through a similar program last year. Safety for drivers, other participants, officials and spectators is our top priority. Our goal is to create an annual course with a focus on road safety and skills development. We believe that driving skills are perishable and must be regularly renewed and developed.
Course fee: Kr 200,-
Welcome and ride wisely! Greetings Straand MC Hub - We make others happy!
