Jun 14,2024Simply brilliant guidance and training. Identify what you want to work on and help you achieve your goals. All 3 courses I’ve done with CAT have been brilliant and they’ve made me a better more confident driver with improved skills.

Jun 11,2024I did the Level 1 track training and it was a great experience. Paul is super experienced and helpful and really helps you understand the logic behind all the driving techniques. Millbrook is also ideal because it has a variety of courses to try and perfect different aspects of your driving.
Steve C
Jun 08,2024Excellent service from beginning to end by the whole team. The day itself was a fantastically facilitated set of performance training exercises and tutorials which are objective driven, giving both the theory and practical elements to not only learn on the day but also in the months and years afterwards. Highly recommended.
Vincent
Jun 07,2024A great welcome from Colin and his team at Millbrook. Each section of the day began with clear concise instructions and what we hoped to achieve. Not only did I begin to fully understand the capabilities of my GT3 but also did it having a great deal of fun. I can't imagine doing a track day without spending a day with Colin first- however good a driver you are, Colin will without doubt improve your technique whether you drive a Mini or an Enzo. A must do course!

Jun 06,2024Colin was an expert instructor and courageously sat in the passenger seat whilst my son and I explored the limits of our car at a world class track facility! I would highly recommend the course to anyone that is serious at improving driver safety and awareness, especially in the context of performance car ownership.

Jun 01,2024I cannot remember when I have had a better day out. The communication, organisation and ultimately the training were first class. I learned so much and got to put it into practice with expert guidance. Thank you Lynne for organising us. To our trainers, Colin and Steve - your knowledge, experience and, more importantly, passion for the subject, was off the scale. Thank you for sharing some of what you know with us and I look forward to the next session with you. I definitely came away a better driver and I look forward to continuing to develop.

Jun 01,2024I had a fantastic day with the CAT Driver Training team. The whole crew was amazing from the get-go. It was really informative to dive into the details of my car, understand the mechanics, and see how it all plays into the handling. A big thanks to the team for their top-notch guidance. For anyone looking to really get to know their car and push its limits, I can't recommend CAT Driver Training enough!
Andrew Reynolds
Jun 01,2024This was a fantastic driver training experience. Colin and Steve were incredibly experienced and brought a great balance of engineering theory with practical real life application. They truly knew how to get the best out of me and growing my trust in the car. They provided key lessons and practical things to take into every day and track day driving. The day was well run and in a small group making it highly personal. Excellent value for money. Would recommend highly.

Jun 01,2024Despite being an experienced driver, I knew that there's always more you can learn and although I'd done some advanced driver training in the past, I wanted to take my skillset to the next level. I feel CAT DT have moved my abilities on, further than any other business, because they have the knowledge to explain how to get the best from your vehicle and deliver real-world improvements, in your ability to control it. I'd like to give a massive thank you, to all the CAT DT team: Paul Millbank (my Coach) - who instilled confidence in exploring my limits and has undoubtedly elevated my understanding of vehicle control (now need to practice, practice practice). Thanks also, to Jo, Lynne and Colin - who were all wonderful and welcoming. My time was interesting, instructive and (at times) challenging - all served up with a deep knowledge of vehicle dynamics (appreciated as an ex-engineer) and with a friendly & supportive manner. Also, Millbrook proving ground is an amazing venue and it's a privilege to be there. You don't have to be the next F1 hero, as CAT DT have courses to suit all drivers/aims. I highly recommend them and look forward to continuing my education with them!

May 25,2024A brilliant day! Great instruction, An enormous help in understanding what your car is capable of. Super crew.
Jenny Wood
May 23,2024I had a great day at the Safety Driving course, I learnt lots and felt much more confident after. Absolutely loved the skid car part, never knew I could have so much fun with donuts and not be eating them! Our instructor Paul was brilliant, he made the day fun and interesting. All the staff are lovely and it was an enjoyable day for all of us that attended.
David Fisher
May 22,2024I had a fantastic day at CAT driver training, Colin explains and passes on the techniques of high performance driving with ease and certainly made me understand his instructions giving me confidence and unlocking driving skills I’d never have found by myself. I would recommend anyone to book a day. Well worth the money and an experience that’ll stay with me forever. The 2 lads on my course made the day such fun as well and it was a few days before I could wipe the silly grin off my face !
Julie Wallington
May 21,2024Comprehensive and fun course taught by experienced instructors.
Martin Humphrey
May 16,2024Excellent training, clearly and patiently explained, which better allows me to more effectively and safely, utilize the abilities of my car.
Customer X
May 15,2024Paul is an astonishingly good coach. I wanted to build confidence in driving my GT3. Having been a passenger in cars driven by great drivers, I never thought I’d be able to do what they do. After a day with Paul, I’m confident that one day (with more training and practice) I will. Thank you Paul!
Steven West
May 14,2024A brilliant day with CAT at Millbrook. A mixture of classroom theory to explain the physics, then putting it all into practice in the car with an instructor alongside. Great to put the newly learned skills to the test in the 3 lap consistency trial at the end of the day, with all 6 of us being remarkably closely matched, which can only be down to the quality of the instruction, giving us all confidence in our car's capabilities to get the desired results. Thanks to Paul, Steve and Lynne for making it a fantastic experience.
Rafael Chandler
May 13,2024First class experience, learnt so much about how to get the most out of my car and some new skills to work on. All the staff were super friendly and made you feel very safe so you could get the most out of the day. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to extract a bit more out of their driving experience. Definitely money better spent on this than on performance modifications to make your car quicker.
Kevin
May 07,2024Fantastic day with Paul building on both practical experience (track and skidpan) plus classroom theory - I like to know why the car behaves as it does. Can’t wait to put it all to practice at upcoming track days this summer.
Mark McConkey
May 07,2024A fantastic day with the team at CAT providing important insights into driver safety.
