Yes, you can! but we strongly advise against using your own vehicle for all the exercises since it will put more stress in the car than it was designed to endure on a single day. If you want to do some exercises on your own vehicle after we are done you may do so, and that way you'll feel the equivalence of what you did during the day on your everyday car.
No, we provide vehicles with tires that can be destroyed through the training.

In case of emergency, we will change the date of our training, if this is not possible, we will, of course, evaluate your situation and figure out a solution.
