This combination of talents allow him to teach karting skills, coach drivers in respect of the effective use of these skills and then demonstrate how it can and should be done at all levels of karting from novice lead follow to national level competition.'

... I have attended another racing school and driven competitive karts at another facility , and your course and facility are head and shoulders above anything else I have ever experienced. Typical racing schools today seem to have evolved into highly - structured impersonal, overly organized processes that are geared more toward  making money and avoiding litigation than truly involving the students in the fun, excitement and adrenaline rush of racing. Your facility and approach are a bread of fresh air.
Your enthusiasm over what you do is absolutely contagious. I will be back... and I won't come alone.
