Just thought I'd post my thanks to Paul for a superb morning. I though I was quick but controlled, but he really opened my eyes to how balanced fluid driving techniques make for much more rapid progress. By keeping the car composed and settled I can now achieve much higher cornering speeds with higher commitment levels. Different to the rally style I have been taught in the past, but much more applicable to Englands fast flowing A-roads.
Many thanks
Many thanks

It was a pleasure to give an already highly talented driver a few pointers.
I enjoyed the day Dave, especially when the techniques started to dawn and the progress was much smoother and more rapid.
I'm sure there are more folk to be converted!

It was a pleasure Chris,great to see you got a lot out of the day.
Practice and you will reap the rewards.
Anyone else fancy it?
It's basically an insight into Roadcraft.

Paul M8, I'm still interested in this but appreciate you're giving up valuable time off. As my bro-in-law is in the S Yorks force I could get 'trained' by their loonies.....er I meant instructors if you're pushed for spare time. It won't be in a scooby though - have you driven many rwd cars with 400 bhp per tonne?

Paul is without doubt the safest, smoothest and quickest driver I seen in any car - period...

Paul Many Thanks for yesterday’s tuition and drive in the North York’s moors, a truly excellent day out. A real revelation into how to make good progress by keeping the car in a balanced and flowing format. Now spending any spare time going for drives and practicing what I learnt !

A pleasure Richard and very well done.
It's not easy to take some of it on board and put it into practice straight away,but you did very well.

Just got back from and exceptional day's tuition with an exceptional instructor.
250 miles & 6hrs around North Yorkshires finest under the guidance of Paul.
I cannot rate this highly enough; A simply superb day that is a must for any serious driver who wants to get the best of their car and themselves..
Finally putting all those point and squirt runs behind me, Paul showed me how to travel swiftly & safely. Blending vision, planning and roadcraft into a variety of situations and road layouts to very high standards.
Thanks for your time today mate, it was very much appreciated and your enthusiasm and professionalism are second to none..
I await the second phase..
