Can I just check what’s on offer ,I’ve been disappointed on a few driving experiences before.

I Assume I get an half hr slot but what does that mean .IE What does it break down to ?

Pretty much as per the opening post:

 

"We aim to run ten sessions of thirty minutes each, during this time you will  have a camera attached to your car, then you will review the video and discuss improvements with the instructor, then you'll go out again and make it all happen and so on until your allocated time is up ."

 

It's not a driving experience, it's professional tuition in addition to and as part of your track day.

 

Is there anything specific you were after? All ideas gratefully accepted...

Ok got it , I wasn’t sure if you went out with an instructor beside you , for your half hour , which I personally think for me would be better as I know little or nothing about lines , breaking cornering speed etc .

I believe you do go out with an instructor, that's the whole point, apologies if this is not clear.

 

@John, please can you clarify...

Sorry Andy probably a combination of my ignorance and lack of track experience  ,I read it as me driving round the track alone with a camera on then the instructor playing it back and pointing out what I was doing wrong , 🙄

No apology needed Steve, it's not 100% clear but I believe Nick from Triple M is our instructor for the day and will be in the passenger seat...

 

We do still need a few more to sign up for this though for it to happen.

If there is close to enough people I don't mind taking a double session to help it happen

Say 30 mins in morning and 30 mins in the afternoon.

No - the instructor just reviews the video with  you multiple times until your time is up

Folks, for clarity, this tuition does not involve anyone sitting in your car with you.

 

The 30 minute sessions (which will take place during the track day) consist of the following:

  • You will be allocated / choose a 30 minute time slot during the day
  •  A camera is fitted to your car.
  • You then do a few laps whilst recording video and then come back in for review with the instructor who advises on where improvements can be made.
  • You then go back our for more laps again being recorded and then come back in for further review with the instructor who advises again
  • Repeat until your time has expired

For those in any doubt, these sessions are being run by club sponsor Triple M Motorsport who run full days tuition of this format for drivers who compete at the highest standards and all rate the sessions highly. Triple M are renowned experts at what they do and are specialists at Blyton Park

 

Any questions, please contact me via PM
