Day out at Millbrook Proving Ground @ CAT Performance Driver Training

Bee Pee · 05-08-2017, 03:03 AM

Spent Saturday at Millbrook with CAT driver training - huge fun and informative.

Got the chance to truly get to grips with the car safely and see how/why TC, ABS etc work effectively and be taught had to drive the cars at max attack mode w/o relying on these systems.

Recommend this to anyone wanting to know what they and their car are like in extremis within a controlled environment.

I've had Colin Hoad driver training in my list of reminders for ages - something for when I next have some spare time.

Watesy,

Definitely, I was in Colin's group for the day - great guy - definitely knows his craft and how to relate his nous to his audience.

Mrs H - Jo - made sure we were fed and watered throughout the day too !
