Let me know if you have questions :)

I know the emphasis of this event will be on safety, obstacle avoidance, etc.

However, will there be more advanced car control exercices, such as keeping a constant radius oversteer slide around the wet skidpad, "stunt driving" type manoeuvers (quick backup, J-turns, etc.)?

In other words, I want to send my sister, but is there going to be a special "hooligan" workshop where I can have fun?

No hooligan sessions but there may be extra practice sessions available on the skidpads.

Is the helmet requirement a must? I am asking as I don't know the setup, the speed attained or potential for collision or what not, as it may be an obstacle for first timers. (But by no means should safety be compromised)

Helmets (M2000/2005 SA2000/2005) will be required.
