Off to Millbrook

[macpaul]

Mornin' All,

I'm off to Millbrook this Thursday 19th for a two hour driving lesson in my V8V with a firm called Driven-Ltd.

I know some of you have done an AM day there but, in two hours, are there any suggestions as to what to try and what not to bother with.

I imagine Driven will have a programme but any suggestions, comments or stories gratefully received.

Simon.

Thanks Pete.

Fair point on the pavé!

Improving my abilities and exploring the limits of the car a bit more.

I've done a couple of trackdays and I don't know if Millbrook is about road expertise or track expertise really.

Two different things in my mind.

Thanks for those comments and that sounds like good advice Lewis.

As I say, I imagine the chap has a programme in mind but it's useful to know what's what.

Sounds like Alpine and outer handling circuit, and you've got to see what top speed is.....

I did get air once at a hump-back bridge in Sussex in my Vantage and it's not something I'm that keen to repeat.

PDC = performance driving course?

This is presumably the AM organised day?

If so, can you tell me how much they charge?

I'm paying £264.00 for two hours with my own car, including instructor.

Car Limits is £220 ALL day

Blimey. That's terrific if that includes the access fee.

Next time.....

One last question prompted by recent posts - from combined experience, are my tyres likely to get shagged out in two hours?

I've got a set I use for trackdays but they are a bit marginal for road use, so do you think it's worth swapping them over?
