What to expect from Rally Driving on your Stag Weekend
"Left 2, right 3, right 1, left 5." What on earth are they on about? I personally have no idea but guess it is something to do with gears and which way to turn. Stag dos are all about turning your hand to a sport or activity that you wouldn't normally get a chance, so why not try a rally driving stag weekend.
Engine revving, wheel spinning, skidding sideways around corners
You will try out some of the skills of champion rally drivers - engine revving, wheel spinning, skidding sideways around corners also known as drifting, to name a few. Basically you'll be do things in a car that you never thought possible and at break neck speed.
An instructor will be sitting alongside you at all times, egging you on to go faster and faster, which is reassuring. From personal experience they'll shout at you to step on the accelerator and regain control of the car when all you want to do is slam on the brake. I've never worked that one out as it goes against all common sense.
Anyway, enough about me. You'll be briefed on rally techniques used by champions and explained on all safety procedures. You will also be taught to handle a rally car on tarmac or loose surfaces and to cope with cornering at speed. Oh yes, nearly forgot, and how to brake correctly.
If you get angry on the road then take it onto the dirt track. Rally driving is fast and furious and I guarantee you'll look at driving in a whole new light after this stag party activity.
