Advanced DRIVING courses : Auckland area

[dawnrazor]

I'm looking for a company that holds advanced driving classes/courses for 'joe public'. I have found a ford and holden run one (two seperate events obvoiusly), that both run out of puke, was wondering if anyone knew or has used other companies, or can give some feed back on these two.


thanks


Christmas eh! Jeez....

The Ford day is more classroom and less track time than the Holden day. For fun factor, the Holden day is better.
BMW also run one. It is 'free' for people who buy (some models of) brand spanking new beamers, but I understand it is actually open to anyone who's prepared to pay.

Yeah my mate did a BMW one at Pukekohe - did it through his work. Said it was awesome!

I did the Ford one (compulsory for all drivers of our company cages). Pretty good fun really, three classroom sessions followed by practicals out on the course. The practical stuff is all in small groups so you get to try each task a few times.

I don't think I learnt a lot that was new, but getting to try the theoretical stuff in that environment - and realising how hard it is to put into practice was an eye opener.

Disappointments? No hot laps of Puke, apparently you have to do the next course for that...

I think Prodrive still run one out in Manukau on the super stage. I did it about 7 years ago.
