Drifting School. Would you go?

A friend of mine is opening up a school to teach people how to drift. Apparently Drifting and the schools are big in the states and growing. I'm wondering how Canadians feel about this and how much you would be willing to pay... would you go at all?

There are already drift days hosted by 240sx guys and driftops. All usually around $100 for 8 hours of track time.

IMO I think it's very well worth it. It taught me a lot and I'm pretty sure my car would have ended up in the junkyard long time ago if I didn't go.

Sorry, I didn't mention that they have a vehicle sponsor. Michael Kent at RightDrive.

His website is still being updated. www.sidewayzdrifting.com

I would do it, drifting is fun... teaches you car control and the limits of your car.
