CAT Driver Training Milbrook Saturday 9th May 09

[CATDT]

Hi Everyone

Thought I'd sign up to help 2bar boost with any questions you may have along the way. Good to 'meet' you :thumbs:

The CAT team are really looking forward to hosting a great day for you to explore your cars and develop your knowledge and techniques.

If I can help in any way, please just ask.

Kind regards
Jo

Chaps, I am thinking of doing this day. It's my bday on 9th May so thought it would be a nice pressie that the wife can give me :hahaha: . Do we need to get the full 8 for it to work?

GUTTED!!!!! :moan: I can't do the 9th May..... :banghead:

And I so wanted to do this....... I have a couple of mates that are interested so I might arrange a date a bit later in the year.

Have fun chaps!

Hi anissut

See the below:

* If we do not get the full 8 members required, it is possible that the day will still go ahead so long as there is a minimum of 4 people. With 6 it can still run but odd numbers of 5 or 7 do not work. CAT will make the decision based on interest at 31st March 2009. If there are less than 4 people paid up at this time then those that have paid will have their deposits/full payments refunded to them, less any merchant fees.

Trust this answers your query!

Welcome to the site i have some questions

Do you get the full day driving ?
and what is included drifting and the like ?

[anissut]

Yeah, I would love to learn some drifting as I'm not very confident with it. Wouldn't mind impressing my wife with a few drifts round the local roundabouts. :hahaha:

Thanks Mark.

Each attendee will be with their instructor for 1.5 hours across the day as 'free access' within Millbrook is not permitted.

Activities designed for the different circuits are:

• Learn ‘threshold’ braking from 100+mph on the ‘Mile Straight’
• High speed driving, potentially to the maximum of your car, on the banked circuit of the ‘High Speed Circuit’ - looking at vehicle balance at high speed, correct focal point, as well as technical aspects such as compliance steer and bump steer
• Drive the demanding ‘Alpine Route’ circuit with its hills, and variety of corners from hairpins to long and sweeping - covering advanced road and track cornering techniques
• Take on the tight, twisty and challenging ‘Handling Circuit’ - covering advanced road and track cornering techniques
• Put a car through its paces on the wide open spaces of the ‘Steering Pad’/Mile Straight Apron - exploring understeer and oversteer plus stability programmes

Plus the end of day gymkhana using either our Caterham 7 or Subaru Impreza.

Please give us a call in the office on 01234 757633 if you would like a more indepth description of the programme for the day.

Drifting is a separate course which we are happy to provide - along with many others in our menu and can incorporate use of your own car if you wish.

It's one of the most technically demanding skills to master and you are taken through each element building your knowledge and technique as you go. If you'd like the full itinerary let me know.
