Sep 05,2017Great company. Great experience and training. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get into track based driving Or advance there skills. The instructors are 1st class. With so much knowledge. Amazing days driving in a play ground for cars.

Sep 01,2017My day was absolutely fantastic and I can't thank Colin enough for his knowledge and expertise and the way he made you understand what you were trying to do. I would have no hesitation in recommending this course and experience to anyone and I certainly will be back for more coaching. All the very best to Colin & Joe for their future success.

Aug 24,2017I have learned more about handling and pushing the car in 2 days than in 10yrs of daily driving, and have built enough confidence to go on my first track day. And looking forward to join Cornering Masterclass with my car club. Overall, highly relevant and enjoyable experience, definitely would recommend to anyone regardless of your level of driving expertise.

Aug 21,2017Went ahead with CAT training at Millbrook on Friday. Was not disappointed. Spent the day with Paul on a packed agenda. Lots of theory to take in but matched with practice on the various tracks. Taking the car around the high-speed bowl was great fun as was the alpine track and doing timed sessions on the handling circuit. Definitely felt more confident with the car at the end of the day. Expensive but worth it, but warning it's a bit addictive!

Aug 18,2017Colin was very professional and extremely knowledgeable whilst making the day really enjoyable. We had a range of driving abilities in the car and yet he adapted the training to suit each of us individually. We have all taken away so much from the day and have already seen improvements in our driving. Thank you! We are so glad we did this!

Aug 14,2017An awesome day out! Paul was very knowledgeable, instruction was well organized and easy to understand. Most valuable was getting to feel how your car reacts at the limits and to do it in a safe environment. Definitely would recommend it to anyone who enjoys driving. As there's always something you can improve to make you a more confident and safer driver.

Aug 14,2017Just a quick Thankyou to Paul and everyone at CAT for the days training recently. This was my first time doing anything like this and was in a car new to me. I wanted to improve on my skills and understanding, and came away from the day feeling much more confident in both myself and my car. It was a fun way learn and feel some of the performance the car was really capable of. I am really looking forward to coming back again some time in the future, probably on a track day next time :) Thanks Alex

Jul 29,2017Amazing experience with Colin and his very professional team and set up at Millbrook. Whatever car you drive or your level of experience you will be humbled by the skills these guys teach on a one to one basis! I'm going back again soon for sure!

Jul 26,2017A day with Colin on a 'One to One' basis is almost essential for anyone who lives on a small rock in the middle of the English Channel or lives in a city. We don't drive fast and don't get the opportunity to drive fast unless we are on a track. Colin spent the day reminding me how much fun it was to have 'fast feet' and to make the Tyres 'squeak' as they reach the sticky limit. I think I lost about 7kg in weight during the day as I was worked so hard but oh what a day. Thoroughly recommended to anyone who had a petrol head. Best bit was the 'Alpine Loop' at the end of the day. Full gas on the exit with all four squeaking. 👍😃

Jul 24,2017Attended the Performance Driver Track Day as part of a club with 5 others and in short was one of the most enjoyable, informative and fun days I've had. Have learnt so much about both my driving and how to improve and about my car as well and what it is capable of. Just getting to drive around Millbrook was an experience itself and CAT take full advantage of the facilities on offer there, from looking at threshold braking on the mile straight, cornering on the alpine course to grip limit on the skid pan before putting your new found skills to the test on the Gymkhana circuit against the clock! For anyone wanting to improve their lap times or their driving in general I would thoroughly recommend CAT driver training and I'll be looking to do some of their other courses in the near future!

Jul 24,2017You absolutely have to go and do this day, you will 100% learn something new and come out of the day shocked at the simple changes that can be made to your driving, that not only get you going quicker but you will be doing more speed in a much safer manner. I have been at a bit of a loss with driving quickly since I had my accident last year and didn't realise just how much it had affected my confidence, behind the wheel which in turn, was actually making my driving even worse. I explained this to colin and imediatly felt that he uderstood where my head was at and that he would help me get past it. i have learnt so much about myself and the car on this one day i cant wait to got back for some more learnig i wouldnt hesitate to go back again i have almost no doubt if i had done this prior to my crash it posibly would never of happend! THANK YOU CAT ive got my mojo back and i will see you soon with out a doubt the best value mod ive done and i can take into every car i drive

Jul 23,2017This is a really well thought out and comprehensive training experience. It is pitched just right and I came away feeling I had really gained something. Colin is a patient instructor and gets both the theoretical and practical aspects of the training across very well.

Jul 20,2017Some of the best money you will ever spend on you or your car! Will definitely be going back to see where my limit lies.

Jul 11,2017Superb Tuition very highly recommended Colin really helped me understand how the driver inputs effect the car and that has made me faster - and safer.
Martin C
Jul 11,2017Colin delivered a bespoke Cross-country / Offroad driver training course for our company. We had discussed the content and objectives beforehand but what Colin delivered was over and above our expectations. It was obvious Colin had put a lot of time, effort and thought into the content / demonstrations / exercises, all of which were entirely applicable to our need. I would not hesitate in recommending Colin and the rest of the CAT Driver team to anybody
Eric
Jul 10,2017I spent a day training with Colin. He was very informative. The mix of discussions on vehicle dynamics with track time to test it was great. I now have homework to work on until the next time I can get further instruction with Colin.
Peter Jacobs
Jun 30,2017A great day out. Came away having learned new skills and re-invigorated about driving generally. Even my wife has noticed the difference (better driving) since.
Ben Davies
Jun 29,2017An absolutely stunning day and terrific company with the other Porsche 993 drivers; Colin and Jo were wonderful hosts and I learned a huge amount. I'm signed up for a full day of 121 tuition as I was clearly just scraping the very top of the iceberg of Colin's knowledge! Thoroughly recommended for any petrolhead (and even those with just a passing interest).
Neil Hosie
Jun 27,2017I have not had this much fun in a very long time. Paul was excellent - gave great instruction and insight and at the same time had a phenomenal sense of humor and made sure to keep the day educational and enjoyable. Education, adrenaline and laughter is an addictive combination. I will be back without question and cannot recommend highly enough to anyone looking to improve their driving skill.

Sep 05,2017Thanks to Colin and the way he articulated and demonstrated his impressive expertise and knowledge, I feel I'm both a better driver on the public roads and a quicker one on the racetrack. He's shown me how to extract consistency from both myself and the car I'm driving and find that balanced platform - it was like attending a Masters degree course lecture course for three hours - made simple. I will be back for more as it was one of my most educational, fun and memorable days on tarmac! Many thanks Colin.
