Hi Bro

Not much info mention from the  www.nscs.org.sg . But from what I know is that they'll teach you how to control and handle your car in the event it skid, blah blah blah....etc

By the end of the course, who knows, you might know how to do the stunt like Ah Seng(180 degree turn) and also perform "Singapore Drift" !!!  :D

360? no one try b4. but it is possible with a downshift of gear, and pedal to the metal while pressing on ur footbrake hard n fast simultaneously when u swing ur steering wheel.

180? definitely possible.

footbrake's main setback is that it autolocks. unlike handbrakes, u can press onto the button so that it doesnt lock.

i accidentally slid my latio on a few occasions especially on wet roads, and the feeling of sliding (4 tires totally give way) is quite an interesting feeling. it isnt very fast, but ur body is moving in a different direction from what you are expecting and what ur eyes perceive.

the noise from the tires rubbing off the road will cause a rumblin noise
