Driver 61 Opiniones 102

“As a track day enthusiast I’ve driven with a number of instructors, in different cars, and on a variety of famous tracks, but spending a day at Bruntingthorpe with Scott, in the MX5, was perhaps the most impactful coaching session I have ever done.

Anyone who has watched the Driver 61 videos will know that Scott has a great teaching manner and a really clear way of explaining things.

But understanding the theory is only part of it. Nothing beats putting the theory into practice on the track, with Scott himself alongside you, giving you constant feedback. He has such a good feel for what the car is doing that he knows exactly what inputs you are making and what you need to do to improve them.

Because the session is one to one, there is a lot of time on track, tailored to you as an individual. It’s very concentrated and intense, but as a result it is also very rewarding.

Whatever your level, I don’t think there is any a better investment you could make in your driving than to spend a day with Scott, honing those fundamental car control skills”

Highly Recommended! Scott has a clear and structured way to introduce new skills and remove bad habits resulting in tenths or even seconds off your lap times

So good I'll return later in the year for another session

Before attending Scott's 1-2-1 course as a novice trackday driver, I
had basic understanding of track driving (thanks to Driver61
University series!) but my little experience prevented me from pushing the car near its limit. For the same reason when signing up I felt a bit concerned whether Scott's course would be too overwhelming for me as most of his clients/students are racing drivers.

After an intensive and productive day I'd like to say my driving has
been transformed completely. In fact it is a bit difficult to put into
words as the improvements are all around from vision, techniques and awareness to overall smoothness. As a coach I find Scott
knowledgeable, approachable and patient. This 1-2-1 course just
provided me with a perfect opportunity to apply and explore what I
learnt from his University series into real action.

I had a one day course with Scott and it has been a wonderful experience

many thanks to scott mansell
very professional , patient and kind
He gave me in just one day the tools to improve my driving
I wish to do another day with him asap

I liked the online classes they were great. It’s those that spiked my interest in going to the MasterClass driving school.. I enjoyed my trip and Scott taught me a lot about driving a race car. I feel it was worth the trip to Great Britain..

Good experience, certain I made steps forward I would not have done without this focused guidance.

Scott is quite simply the best of the best ... he gives you the fundamental tools that you need to become a better driver. Even after one day with Scott my whole approach was transformed. Worth every penny.

"The Driver61 Series is an amazing online resource that, because of the clarity of explanation and the manner in which the learning moves in a step by step manner from basic principles through to more advanced techniques, is beneficial to the first time track day driver and the more experienced club racer. it also provides a firm foundation to move on to working directly with Scott on a 1 to 1 coaching basis, to put the skills learnt on the course into practical use on the track.

I took advantage of a full days coaching from Scott at the Bruntingthorpe Proving Grounds earlier this year and in just a few hours my driving techniques, especially in terms of smoothness of transition from brake to accelerator and to managing the weight distribution and transfer through the different driving phases. Scott's coaching method is relaxed, supportive, clear and concise and totally tailored to the needs of the needs of driver sat next to him in the car.

I can honestly say that I have reaped huge benifits from making use of both resource, but especially from the 1 to 1 coaching I have had from Scott which I believe has been fundemental in improving in my driving techniques that has seen me move from a low mid-pack championship finish in 2017 season to a P9 finish in 2018. I will be taking more coaching from Scott in 2019 for another step improvement and so, if you do nothing else to improve your driving on track, book a 1 to 1 with Scott; you will not regret it."

Having raced in different formats for many years with reasonable but not outstanding results it occurred to me that whilst I have taken skiing lessons, shooting lessons, and riding lessons I have never received a minutes tuition for driving a race car! Since motor racing is my main pastime and certainly the most expensive of my hobbies I thought it was high time I had someone look at my technique (I had come to the conclusion I was driving lots of laps making the same mistakes on every lap)
A day with Scott is worth every penny his approach which drills down on specific technique rather than learning a circuit parrot fashion provides you with a set of skills that can be applied to a vast range of corners and situations. Scott’s tuition has specifically helped me with increasing corner entry speed concentrating on adapting balance under braking which has led to cleaner and quicker exit performance. The end result has been fantastic, lap times have tumbled and there is a little more silverware in the cabinet as a result. Be warned don’t have a late night before your day with Scott he will put you through your paces I was mentally drained by the end of the process. The acid test is of course will I book him again the answer is most definitely yes.

Why should you do a Masterclass?
1. You learn all the required skills and have plenty of time and opportunity to implement them, hone them and build muscle memory.
2. Your technique is analysed, mistakes are identified, corrected and eradicated, and the proper technique developed
3. You are able to concentrate and focus on specific techniques one at a time – until you’ve cracked them
4.You have a lot of time on track with no distractions to ensure you develop and practice, over and over again, the correct technique - this amount of activity on each technique is incredibly valuable and impossible to get on a trackday.
5. Scott is a great teacher
6. You get much, much faster.
I have now booked a day for my son
