    Anyone done this? Is it just an underwhelming money-grab from VW or is there some fun/lessons/tips to be learnt for those who maybe want to get the most of out their performance vehicles?

    Did progression last year, was hella fun and well worth the money. It's much more fun than your standard defensive driving

    They have merged both Progression and Evolution into the one course this year, so one would expect it to be even more thrilling!

    We did your standard emergency brake up to 100km/h, then we did a mini motorkhana course, tried to drift the car in the drift pan, did some cornering exercise at high speed, then 4 laps of the race track.

    I'm definitely doing it again

                    Spots are already being sold before the opening time of 2pm. How is that happening?

                        Noticed that the bookings were open at midnight, but then this morning they've set it to be 2pm. Maybe there's VIP access or something?

                          hmmm... similar story goes for other states as well. I think the reason for early bookings was a glitch in the system. They must've patched it up when tickets were being registered in their system.

                              I logged on early this morning and got mine, but then later it was unavailable and now it seems that big blocks have been set aside... Possibly for dealers/Corporate customers.
