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

Has anyone got experience of these courses and any recommendations?

Cheers,

Rob.

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!

Lol! They all look good, i'm probably gonna give the ddp course at Prodrive Kenilworth a shot, mainly due to location as i'll be passing on my way 'Oop North' to visit family in Yorkshire.

The date i'm looking at is Fri 28 Nov - i have time off work pre-booked already! :-D

Whilst up north, i may as well do the Oulton Park track day on Sat 29 Nov! You fancy joining me on that one? :beer:

You're most gracious for not mentioning my 'close barrier inspection' incident at the Ring...! :whistle: :bigcry: :beer:

DDP course has been cancelled due to limited uptake linked with the 'credit crunch'... :banghead:

I've booked a car control day with Don Palmer instead! :thumbs:

I did a course with John Lyon a while back in my R34. he takes you to a track but on the journey he will instruct you about fast road driving then at the track he shows you more. When i went we go to Myra and Millbrook, very intensive course but great fun. Heres his site
