History:

The history of the original HIGH PERFORMANCE COURSE Originated in 1962, the original High Performance Course was born at almost the dawn of the motorway age from the need for education at the very high speeds involved. For the motorist, horizons opened up with roads designed for safe use of a motorcar at speed and sports cars that
were built for it, like the Jaguar E Type and the Porsche 911.

The experience behind John Lyon:

The HIGH PERFORMANCE CAR DRIVING COURSE is under the
personal direction of John Lyon, one of the first High Performance
co-drivers taught in the early 60's by the late John Miles MBE who was
previously an advanced instructor at The Metropolitan Police Motor Driving School, Hendon. John Lyon later became an instructor at Hendon himself, one of the few civilian instructors to be taught to drive safely at high speed by Mr O.V. Thomas B.E.M. John is well known for his roadcraft writing and his vast motor racing experience,in particular, his success as twice overall champion racing driver in the B.R. & S.C.C. Caterham Super Seven Championship in his road going Seven.
