Driver training courses?

[glendog74]

Hi,

I'm thinking that i'd like to get on a one day driver training course using the CSL to enable me to learn the car better at the limits on a closed course and be able to do 'stuff' in safety...! :clown: :smt077 :whistle:

I'm thinking of the following full day at £325:

Has anyone got experience of these courses and any recommendations?

Cheers,

Rob.

A friend is doing one in his CSL in December at http://www.millbrook.co.uk/proving_driver.asp

The one you are thinking of doing looks good though.

The best driver training that I can recommend - www.carlimits.com :thumbs:

I have done Driver DP, you use a skid pan and stuff.... good fun but not sure how much of a better driver you'll be. Good confidence building for going sideways though.

Thats what i need - i have very good judgment of where the limits are, but having owned AWD car's for the last 10 years i'm not so good at correcting tail end slides :whistle:

Cheers guys - just need to book my Christmas present from the missus now! :thumbs:

Its very good value actually, you also do an alpine style track. It is at the Prodrive centre.

yes i did an andy walsh car limits day in March this year and will do another in Spring 2009 so if anybody wants to fill up a 4 car day then join the party!!

best way is to go speak with him with 4 cars and bargain for £450 total rather than £199 a head

i know what you mean I had a passenger lap with him in sept at the ring.. effortless! :notworthy: :notworthy:

Im really tempted to do a Car Limits day (as recommended by Steve Gill above) - they have quite a few dates still available in November - its in Essex and i know the airfield they do it on and its a large area, good circuit. Just wondered if there were any other members on here that fancied joining me as it gets cheaper the more cars you have. Anyone interested???

A bit more expensive and its not so much a tuition day although you do learn a lot about car control.

Get on a Palmersport day, I take my customers 4 or 5 times a year.

Me last week



Best day out money can buy!
