I did the Intermediate Track Day course last year, and I have to say that it was one of the best courses I've ever done. Mainly because Colin Hoad is an *excellent* teacher. I've had plenty of 20 minute sessions on track days, but the problem with those is they aren't long enough, and they're delivered by racing drivers - and the characteristics that make you a good racing driver (ego & aggression) make you a very poor teacher. Colin describes in detail the point of an exercise, then you repeat it until you properly understand what the car is doing underneath you, with pauses for further explanation, on both sides.
It also helps that he has a very professional set up and that Millbrook is a bloody impressive place!
I fully intend to go back and do the Advanced Track Day course this year."

Our Training Difference

  • "Clear, scientifically based and obviously from experience" Matthew Taylor
  • "Serious issues re handling a car but fun too" Jo Neville
  • "The tuition was focused on my abilities and directed to where my driving could improve" Craig Bruce
  • "Top day out, learnt loads, especially for a novice like myself." OT - London
  • "I have had the most enjoyable couple of days. Has been brilliant fun and still educational. Very friendly instructors and staff" Melanie Gates
  • "Every exercise teaches something new and is very valuable - Adrian Ferdinands
  • "Very useful driving skills, excellent. Calm, clear, made me feel at ease. Great facilities." NAM - Northampton
  • "Despite my having 20 years of driving experience under my belt, the first half of the day on public roads and motorways turned out to be extremely valuable - plenty of great learning points to be had. You think you’re a good driver and then you realise how much better you could be after Colins coaching - brilliant! It’s already making a big difference to my day to day driving" Andrew Harding
  • "The training from CAT came in very useful indeed - I found that I was a whole lot more confident behind the wheel, by virtue of actually having some understanding what the car was doing" Adrian Ferdinands
  • "We got through a lot in just 3 hours" James Knight
  • "After 1 hour of teaching I could clearly see that Colin teaches in a very different way to most other instructors. I guess this is the consequence of a very broad background rather than just performance driving..... they look at things from a different perspective and emphasize key techniques that are not even mentioned on some other courses. Courses ... were more or less what I wanted to learn, rather than sticking with a pre-made programme. All in all I was very impressed. I did a number of training activities in the past starting from full BMW courses and similar, 1 - 1 training with some famous instructors and 4 days training at Silverstone drive academy. In my honest opinion CAT beats them all." Valery Latyshev
  • "I’ve never been on any track before and what an experience - I’m still grinning" Mo Kassem
  • "Your instructor gradually builds up on what you learn and adds extra tasks for you to complete using your new found technique" Grant Wassell
  • "The word training for me means boring boring boring and that I have to listen for hours and take everything that is said to me in, when I could be doing something much more interesting. Well this training is fun fun fun and in a lot of parts totally exhilarating. I never knew I could do what I did yesterday" Steve Badger
  • "Colin’s knowledge of mechanics and handling is extensive. Not being a mechanic or professional driver myself Colin always impresses me in the way he explains things in a very understandable and simple manner" John Parris
  • "The instruction was much more beneficial than perhaps a racing track. The one to one driver/instructor experience for the whole day really does "drive" the knowledge into your brain. The different tracks and the gradual build up of skills creeps up on you, so you suddenly find yourself driving almost as good as Colin!" Paul Bennett
  • "If you go to learn and you listen they will teach you a lot.... Another training company I was with were great at instructing you what to do but CAT tell you why - it gets technical in places but Millbrook proves the effects on the car to help you follow the science behind it" Lawrence Nash
