About the sport
The grace of Precision and Paces, the accuracy through the cones, the speed and thrills of the obstacles.
Based on horse driving trials, this is a full event in a few hours in the comfort and convenience of an indoor arena.
Spectators are always welcome, and this friendly sport is the ideal way into competitive driving.
