Booked in for 31/8 at 12.15 - seems to be the one for the melbourne folk...

Not sure why you will have to pump up your tyres. Looks like VW supplies the cars in the course outline

Thanks Highlander, I was so excited about going that I didn't realise they really are supplying the cars.
Was happy being able to drive my own but even better!

That's just what they tell the locals to make them feel a basic level of importance :p

Re the helmet, they say that they will email you re what to bring and I bet they tell you to pump up your tyres.
Don't remember having to have a helmet for the Ian Luff driving course I did years ago and since were doing basic skid pan stuff, I doubt we need it.
(Except for the hot lap!)

Yes now that I think about it there must be a classroom session that will probably last about an hour before two hours of driving starts.
I have had friends do driver performance and defensive classes at one of these venues and they were required to wear a helmet, so I thinks thats a given. I was just wondering if they supplied them. I give them a call and find out next week.

I have tried a few times yesterday and today but I dont seem to get past step 2, am I supposed to wait for an email to proceed? all I get is a message saying X places left but all mu details remain in the form (only the vehicle drop box selects reset)

I hope I get along to this!

i had an issue with proceeding to the next step, but then what i did was click on the left-hand most step up top- picking your session.

once i did that, it sorted it out. got the email 2 mins later.

Well after speaking with the organisers, I can confirm the following:

Helmets (and hair nets) provided. You may bring your own along on the day but depending on the sort, it my not be allowed.
Cost = $0.00.
Using a variety of VW supplied cars.
