Drift Cadet is a driving school with a difference. Instead of road basics, it teaches track technique and skid control to everyone from beginners to circuit racers. The classes are usually held at Winton Raceway, in the north-east Victorian town of Benalla. But, this year, the school’s founders, Pete and Linh, opened their new headquarters in Brooklyn too, out in Melbourne’s west. After months of lockdown, the pair finally had the chance to show off their new space. And, to help celebrate, they invited the city’s GR Supra and GR Yaris community over for some cold drinks and hot snacks.
