I started out on a quad bike when I was two, and now I make a living from drifting. By making this sport accessible to young children through Torque Drift Junior, we might just be discovering the next star of French drifting – I’m proud to be a patron of this school!
At Torque Drift School, our Children’s packages are designed as a shared drifting experience, unique in France:
a memorable moment where a parent and their child experience the same thrills, and the pride of progressing side by side.
As the first school in France to offer this format, we introduce you to drifting in Nissan 370Zs specially prepared for the sport, featuring dual controls for a supervised and reassuring learning experience. Depending on the package chosen, parents and children take turns at the wheel, or the child participates in a workshop format fully tailored to their age and ability.
For beginners, preparation stations (including a simulator) allow them to familiarise themselves with the controls before driving: pedals, steering wheel, reference points, and the basics of the gearbox.
The result: faster progress, greater confidence, and a drifting experience that is as memorable as it is educational.
