Millbrook
Millbrook proving ground in Bedfordshire has rather less open space, but
provides a range of progressively challenging closed road environments for
further testing and honing of your high speed handling skills. In particular
the alpine hill circuit is a magnificent manifestation of a road that contains
almost every conceivable type of medium speed corner to challenge your vehicle
and your self control. The high speed bowl is capable of accommodating the
maximum speeds of most vehicles.
Millbrook is the chosen venue for developing an awareness of car control
in relation to restricted environments such as road and track and it is
the place to explore the qualities and the limitations of your car. You
will appreciate Millbrook rather more if you already have the basics sorted
out and you aspire to develop your skills to the highest level.
