its a day at the Prodrive circuit so you do a handling circuit (not high speed say no more than 3rd gear in a m3), wet straight road where you make the car oversteer in the wet and bascially keep it going all the way whilst keeping control, wet roundabout (didnt like that) and the tower circuit which is basically like doing a trackday.

you get paired up so you arent driving constantly all day as whilst one is with the isntructor in their car, you are waiting and then its your turn in your car - thats fine though. Ben Barker is the Australian F3 champ and races in Porsche Cup - its his mum who runs the course so he is one of the instructors.

When i went in November there was a S2000, Maserati, C63 and two e46 M3s then there are other people on the circuits who are with other organzations receving tuition too.

I've done this too and it is ok. My instructor was Chris Hodgetts, double BTCC champion etc. he ragged the hell out of my car and clipped a cone!
