You'll Learn More in Two Minutes with CAT than in a Whole Day Elsewhere

Our programmes and courses have raised the standard in driver training in the UK, and we now set the bar for others in the industry. We are unique in the delivery of this training and in the approach we take: The whole focus is on vehicle dynamics and the effect that you have as the driver of the car. It tests both the car and you as the driver - and you can use your own car or one of ours.

Enjoy a Wholly Positive Learning Experience

We take good care of you - from the moment you book. Through our training programmes you can progress from a learner to a racing driver - it simply depends where you want your knowledge and ability to take you. There is so much to learn! Whatever your starting point, it's a journey that opens your eyes to what you and your car are capable of - and you greatly increase your enjoyment of driving as a result. It's a learning experience like no other - highly enjoyable, motivating and beneficial. Guaranteed! Most of all though, it's great fun.

Understand What the Car is Doing Underneath You

When you took your original driving test, you weren't actually taught to drive. Instead, you were taught how to use mechanical car components to make your vehicle move. You were also taught best practice for carrying out everyday manoeuvres - but none of that actually helps you to understand how a vehicle works in relation to the way you drive it. With CAT you learn and understand how to get the best out of your car.

Learn Faster with Bespoke Training You Can Understand and Apply NOW

Understanding tyres, suspension, steering and brakes is key, and we deliver all these topics in an easy-to-understand way - to suit you. A racing driver will need and want different levels of information to a new driver, but the core messages and understanding are still the same. All our courses are tailored for what you need to learn - and you can apply your new skills straight away when you're back out on the road. It's all about solid training, not glitz.

Cut Your Costs

The financial benefits of good driver training are significant. Fewer insurance claims and more economical use of fuel are just two savings. However, the biggest potential cost when you are driving is the risk to your life. Good driver training saves lives - and our training programmes can also protect companies from the risk of corporate manslaughter claims.

Enjoy 100% Action 100% of the Time

You spend your time driving and learning, not watching. It means you gain an in-depth experience and you learn more than you ever thought there was to know! Choose from weekend, full-day or half-day courses. We have our own high-performance track-prepared vehicles and we select them carefully to give you knowledge and experience of different drive configurations. Through CAT you have access to an awesome venue at Millbrook Proving Ground. It's not open to the public and so everything is confidential and your discretion is assured. (It's also a fantastic playground for petrol heads!)

Tap into Expert Guidance

Our teaching is based on real-life experience, not text book learning. Your friendly instructors have been working on race cars and suspension set-ups for at least 25 years and, just as importantly, they know how to teach and translate their experience so that it hits the mark for you personally. They can clearly explain and demonstrate why a car behaves and performs as it does. Chief instructor, Colin Hoad, has over 30 years' experience in motorsport and motor engineering, and his understanding of vehicle mechanics and performance is second to none. He knows that you learn best when the training is hands-on - and that's exactly what a course at CAT Driver Training is all about. It's not about what Colin and his team can do - it's about what you can do.
