Kevin runs a great course! Lots of fun and learning.

He also does track driving days at Sandown that allow you to drive as fast as you can, with and instructor and then solo.

Guaranteed to learn if you want to as there are normally 4-5 professional drivers there to instruct.

Lots of track time.

You use your own car. The courses are covered by most insurers as well, so you can take your car on the track without the worries. Shannons for sure.

"He also does track driving days at Sandown that allow you to drive as fast as you can, with and instructor and then solo"

Wow!

Hey Kevin, what sort of cost are we looking at for that sort of fun?

I've done an advanced driver course (which taught me I'm a retarded driver) and would so much like to learn how to do it right, and to have a decent go at speed on a racetrack.
