Hi everyone,

I'm 23 and love driving. I got bitten by the advanced bug and passed the course in 2021, then this year got my Masters and finally did RoSPA. I've done track, skid pan, been out with police DTU, started my own YouTube channel and attended the HPC young drivers day. HPC is too much money for me at this time and someone close kindly did offer to sponsor me but after much consideration, I decided it just didn't feel right for me to take their money and would revisit in the future. I also do not want to become an observer.

So aside from doing road trips here and there, is there anything else I can add to my driving inventory? Aside from loving it, I always want to improve and learn as well. Perhaps there is nothing else "out there" but I thought I can but ask. At this time, a driving job wouldn't suit me either so this is purely regarding learning

Maybe I'm too obsessed... Lol

Thanks all!

Hi again everyone,
I never got any notifications about this (email has been a nightmare!) So I do apologise for the (very) delayed reply.

To answer some questions, I have achieved a -
IAM F1RST
Masters Distinction
RoSPA GOLD

In regards to the Masters comment and without wishing to come across as "big headed", I did receive a full marks/all 1s distinction. For this reason, I wouldn't be able to improve on my marks any more. Although I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed Masters and wish I could do it all over again!!

Mentoring/observing isn't something I feel I can commit to, especially at my age for free or something I'd really enjoy. I've tried to give pointers before and ended up feeling like I was just giving a commentary. It's a totally different approach and not one I particularly enjoy.

Thank you all for the suggestions. I'm going to continue with my advanced driving YouTube channel and investigate some other things while continuing to learn whenever and wherever possible smile
