Advanced driving, measured, not opinion-based.

A twelve-session programme for licensed drivers at the Chaika training ground in Kyiv. Every lap is logged: braking accuracy, stopping-distance variance, line deviation, reaction time.

Cohort braking-point error fell from 0.42 m to 0.11 m across twelve sessions.On-board telemetry, n = 68 drivers, 2024 season.

A valid driver's license is required for all sessions. Instruction is closed-course only.

Before and after, in numbers

All runs use the same telemetry kit: pedal pressure, stopping distance and line deviation. The table compares the run 1 baseline with the module 3 exit assessment for the same driver cohort.

03 Curriculum

Indexed modules

Five modules. Five measured deltas.

All sessions run at the Chaika training ground, a private closed-course facility. Each module lists its duration, the skill delta our telemetry recorded, and what you must already hold before enrolling. A valid driver's license is required for all sessions.

Deltas are measured, not opinion-based. FIA Grade C instructors sign off each figure after dry-asphalt sessions.

03 / INSTRUCTORS

Coaches whose lap data you can read

Every braking and line correction you receive traces back to telemetry from your own run. Measured, not opinion-based. Prerequisites and certifications are listed in the curriculum.

05 / Booking

Book a measured session at Chaika

Coaching here is measured, not opinion-based: every run is logged, then your braking points, line deviation and reaction time are compared with your own baseline. Sessions run at the Chaika training ground in Kyiv, a private closed-course facility, never on public roads.
