Guys.
We have organized a track day at Sandown for Yella Terra customers on Feb 16th 2008 with John Bowe driver training.
It's a custom itinerary designed for car enthusiasts incorporating defensive driving in the morning, including what causes a skid, how to handle a skid, judging breaking distances etc etc.
Then advanced driving techniques in the afternoon with cornering instruction and a motorkana etc.
You are instructed in your own car, and at your own pace with 4 instructors on hand.
Start time is 8.30am finishing at about 4.30pm with lunch provided.
All of us, and everyone we know that has done this type of course raves about how much fun it is and how valuable the skills are on the road especially for young drivers.
The whole day costs $350.00 each which is well below thier normal pricing and a small price to pay for something that could save your car or even your life.
Numbers are limited so "get in early".
Phone Mark or Matt on 039 555 5522 or e-mail mark@yellaterra.com.au to reserve your spot.
Do you have to be a customer? Otherwise I'm in!

I'll sell you a Yella Terra sticker for 25c so that you qualify. LOL

John Bowe Driving in conjunction with Yella Terra have developed a specific driver training course to give you a chance to experience an exclusive Advanced & Performance Driver Training course together with a friendly group of people.
This course is a full day event and comprises practical driving activities conducted in your own car. There are many aspects that you will learn from the day, including simple changes to your seating position to maximize control of your car, the importance of vision along the road/circuit ahead and an awareness of how to safely control a high powered vehicle. All of this is conducted in a controlled environment with professional instructors helping you throughout the day.
If you have not completed any course’s in the past or if you have only completed a basic defensive driving courses then this event will be a great opportunity to gain a better understanding of how to control your car.
