On-Road Driver Coaching Review
It was a long four years ago that I did the Dynamic Handling course with Ivan at Millbrook. Yesterday I finally got round to the second part of the course – transferring the skills learnt at Millbrook to the road. So how did I cope?
Ivan immediately put me at ease first thing before we even drove off. I was pleased that I had been able to remember a fair bit of what I should be doing, and as the day progressed Ivan systematically built my confidence and showed me exactly the effects that my steering/throttle/brake inputs were having on the handling of the car, but more importantly taught me how to improve. It was extremely satisfying to immediately notice the huge difference it made by putting into practice what he was saying!
My Porsche Cayman GTS is a wonderfully balanced machine and using what I have learnt will enable me to use the car’s talents more skilfully and indeed more safely. Like my day at Millbrook, I am sure that if I continue to practice what Ivan has taught me, the benefits of this course will stay with me for a long time, and I am so glad that even after four years I took the plunge and booked the second part of the Total Car Control course.
Anyone who loves cars and loves driving should seriously consider these courses – the confidence, safety and skill set it gives you is worth a lot more than trying to just upgrade the performance of your car.
