Center Gravity aren't too far from you (near Coventry) and Chris is one of the best (THE best IMO). You'll need to book early however, as his books are always full, due to demand.

You also need to do a LOT of reading about driving technique and about car design.

Here's a good one:

I'm near Peterborough and went to Centre Gravity.Well worth it.Give Chris a ring or contact via website.Excellent service, and he'll certainly take it round the corners!!If anyone can sort out the problem and refind your confidence, Chris can.
