I have absolutely no affiliation with Don, but I can vouce 100% for his coaching abilities.
Being able to coach people to excellence has very little to do with the coaches actual ability in the subject.
A world class coach can coach someone in subjects that they know absolutely nothing about (genuinely).
But to add to his coaching ability, Don is actually a pretty handy driver. He'll never be world champion, but he's no slouch. This just adds to his ability to coach car control.
Colin McRae would obviously kick his but in pretty much any discipline, but if I wanted to improve my driving through coaching, I would rather have an hour with Don than a day with Colin.
All the best

Arron , you can show me how its done when we get to Bedford!!!!
I Have been out with Don palmer on several occasions and even been in with Mr SDB (AKA the Webmaster)on one of Don's wetter the Better Days,
so i can compare directly your driving skills
Oh and if you require anything brought down from Ian @ Palmers i can prob fetch it down for you as i will be seeing him before badford.

Guys,
There will be few drivers with no or little experience out there, like me
who'd welcome any tutition 
in the begining not at 5:00pm
Also how about us having 'L' plate or Coloured paper in the rear window, making obvious to cars behind we are beginers and not someone doing a slow down lap. you can then expect the unexpected

What colour should I use, or will L plates suffice?
T5, you are welcome to come out with me. A good way to learn how not to do it.
