Default Track day tuition

As above I've been building my car for almost 3 years now on and off. Not really done much track driving since I took it off the road. Or had much of a fast cars since. Done alot of driving before but just thinking of a days tuition in my car to get used to real power and again and get my eye in on the track and rid of any bad habits. Thinking of doing this at Oulton. Anyone recommend anyone?

Thanks ryan

I did a day with CAT driver training at Milbrook. Expensive but by crikey did I learn a LOT!
I got told by friends that the tuition offered on trackdays aren't the best but I don't know about that first hand.

Oulton have their own instructors...mainly for the track layout but I'm sure it's worth a call, Gareth Lloyd worked there for a good few years

It's cheaper if you use your own car but mine was having snags so I used their blobeye with about 380bhp iirc.
We covered things like braking techniques, high and low speed handling etc
