anybody got firsthand knowledge of this? was thinking of adding it to my shortlist. looks to be a good variety of surface and road types, also considering the usual Lotus day at Hethel, and Car Limits day, it's just that the instructer ratio looked good for the price.

Comments welcome please

Any driver skill development programme is probably a good thing but if you want to learn techniques which are especially useful in exploiting the dynamics of the Lotus then it's Andy Walsh @ www.carlimits.comyesyesyesyes

The factory lotus courses are also good but you'll finish their syllabus quite quickly by comparison.

That does look quite good for the money. Note the 98db limit if you've got a loud exhaust.
I went on a Seat corporate day there and had a great time (well it was free and I used someone elses car so it should be!).
I'd probably do the carlimits day first though so that you know where the limits are so that you can push with more confidence on this day.

Thanks for the above, have done a club day with walshy with the BOLOC crew, but obviously time was limited with 10 or so drivers, BUT it was a great day.
