twobears Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 He's just booked me a session with an instructro on a track near York because he knows that I really want to improve my driving skills He texted me to ask if I was free on the 14th of June and I now regret saying that was the day I'd planned to elope with my tennis coach N:B I don't actually play tennis but I really should stop the smart Alec replies sometimes 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobears Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Ha ha Will, I think I would lead a pretty dull drive so I'll leave it to you again next year if it's all the same grf, yes the track is at Elvington. Do you know anything about the courses they run? It wasn't expensive so it seems worth a try. I am hoping to go back down to Millbrook later this year depending on finances as it isn't cheap and there are hotel costs to factor in as well. Having said that the Inn at Woburn was a very nice place to stay and they made the best gluten free bread ever BBK, hmm, ok I'm 40 something so maybe not quite old enough to be your mother but can I adopt you anyway?

MrsNiki Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Mr Niki was asking if i fancied going down to Millbrook after you told us about it, fingers crossed he arranges it for me, although i may need to put a reminder on his phone to actually book it!! I'd like to improve my driving by Wales next year so i don't need to wear my brakes out on every corner we hit Hope you have a fab time at the track, and that your tennis coach isn't too put out...

Will370z Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 After hearing grahams and Colin's experience of the tuition at millbrook I'm very tempted to book myself on the course to get the most out of my zed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgerobertfreeman Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Elvington is an old airfield that is regularly used for track days. I was down the other weekend and they must have had a huge selection of cars, maybe 30 plus supercars. However I'm not too clued up on the driver courses more the driving experiences. If its the same company that are running the event as the one I saw you will have a great day. Lots of nice cars, passenger rides etc. Might pop down so keep an eye out for a black 350z.

twobears Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 You should come with me - max of two people per session and it would be cool to have two Zeds! They've reduced the price to £99 for 45 mins tuition in your own car. I rang them for more details and it sounds good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobears Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Niki and Will, Millbrook is the best fun. You should both definitely go Niki, my tennis coach was devastated by the news, obviously - lol Hugh, I've never heard of the St Vincent Arms. I take it that it serves good food? Mr TwoBears will enjoy the beer and the wine list looks good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobears Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Hugh, I have just taken a drive out that way (never been there before - some nice roads too) to find both the track and the pub Both look good so will definitely book a meal there afterwards. Thanks for the recommendation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizurd Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 that sounds like fun twobears! like that its a max of two per session, sounds good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgerobertfreeman Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Would definitely recommend at Vincent's arms. Would also definitely book as it is likely to be very busy. I might pop down but won't be on the track as the car needs some work before its tracked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
