Tenrocca,

I did Ian Luffs course at Oran Park. Stage 1 and Stage 3. Stage 1 is car control, mainly breaking in dry and wet through imanginary traffic using cones ( orange type). Heaps of fun. Taught me how good ABS is as the Cobra dosent have it. I now leave big gap to car in front when in traffic.

There were a lot of P platers at this course. You wouldnt believe the difference in braking distances between drivers and the improvement made.

Stage 1 is prerequisite to further courses.

Stage 3 is a track day. You get to learn lines through corners and get a lot of track time. Day ends up with reverse grid (fastest at back)observed drive(for CAMS) so you get to pass others.

Pretty intense stuff especially when you come into the bottom corner at end of straight with a GT3 on the inside and the Monaro in front spins... A great day and I am going back to do it again soon.

Costs about $500 for Stage 1 and 2.

phil
