Performance Driving

The focus of the course is on smoothness and the correct application of controls in the track environment. Contrary to popular believe, race driving is not an aggressive and hurried endeavour, and rather, you will be taught how to make time to execute the necessary manoeuvres without haste. By being smooth and precise the minimum of stress is placed on the machinery while at the same time enabling you to progressively build up speed and confidence.
