Zapcat Race ClinicThe Zapcat Race Clinic takes teams and Zapcat owners through a day long course that seeks to broaden their knowledge of Zapcat dynamics and how differing set ups can result in greater acceleration, speed and handling. Attention is also given to the most important dynamic within Zapcat Racing, team work.
Although initially based within a class room environment the clinic moves afloat for the afternoon session as teams are introduced to a buoyed course initially on their own, with the intensity gradually increasing as other teams are added to the course. All with the aim of developing race craft and becoming comfortable within a close quarters environment that is Zapcat Racing.
