They do two types of course "Intensive" - 6 per group £175 on 2 Fridays a month or normal - 12 per group £75 on Sat or Sun. Both 3 hours long, using fwd/rwd cars.

I'm not bothered about the fwd aspect and would like to get it removed if I can get enough rwd PHers interested.

So, what do you think? I'd be happy with the normal course.

>>Edit - brain like a seive They do do discounts, so that should be the maximum price.

And should this be in a more general forum?

I'd be interested, even more so if you got the fwd part dropped.

OK!!

I've spoken to the Skid Pan. They will do the session with the emphasis on RWD - but still some FWD. They'll do this for £68.54 (£700+VAT for the session) if we book all 12 places.

The next available full free session is Sunday 18th April (apart from Easter Sunday - but I'm busy so I'm not organising it then) in the morning - so arrive 9.45 to start at 10.00.

The only slight fly in the ointment is that we need to pay (sending cheques is fine - payable to "Drive-Tech Ltd") together. So you need to let me know and email me for my address if you're interested. I'm going to do this on a first come first served basis. I'll also be at the Bristol mini meet on 9th March.

Their website is: www.combe-events.co.uk/index2.html

Isn't the 9th your wedding anniversary or something?

Anyway, count me in for the 18th. Maybe Mrs Yert too.

Just to clarify, is that using their cars or ours. I'd like to try with my car.

It's their cars - Rover/BMW. I'll ask if we can use our own...


>>And their answer is no - mostly due to insurance, but also "you wouldn't want to wash the chemical stuff we use of your cars"
