I found out about U-Drift through Groupon. It was a last minute deal. I bought it as something special for my teenager. Their service was excellent and super friendly. They even offer driving lessons for those individuals that don't know how to drive stick shift (for an additional $30.00).
My 16 year old kid came out loving his driving experience. I would recommend it to anyone wishing to get an adrenaline rush.
The environment is safe and controlled. During the innitial stages, the instructor will teach and show you how the drifting is done, when to apply the E brake, turn, etc. Then, you will take over and do it while the instructor is your copilot. I think I got more than I paid for. The business if family owned and they are super nice and friendly. They take credit cards on the spot too. Don't be intimidated by the more experienced people there. Just go to have fun.
