Almost right, Jim Murcott.
The Advanced Driving Centre, run three main levels of course
stage 1 Car Control ~$110
stage 2 Car Control ~$110
stage 3 High Performance ~$150
The first two stages relate to normal road use and I would recommend
them to anyone. The third stage, as Stuart says, is mostly for when you get
hooked or if you seriously want to gain your CAMS racing license.
(you need to have completed at least stage 1 before doing stage 3)
Don't let the price put you off, you definitely get more value from
the courses than you pay for and it also helps protect you and those
around you from a potential accident, even if it is just avoiding one
started by someone else.
