Testimonial and Referral

 

"His extensive experience as a driver coach is evident in his patient, analytical approach..."

 

Karl Thomson, Team Owner - Compass360/Racing

 

 

 

"His dedication to the sport and our club principles has contributed to the development and growth of our high performance driving program. ...he (brings) a structured approach to his instruction of students at all levels of proficiency and has led to his appointment as one of fifteen senior instructors within our club. He has always looked at instructing as a skill needing practice in order to perfect. His enthusiasm, professionalism and teaching style has made him a perennial favorite of the students he works with, from novice to the advanced racer... I have always looked to Kevin for support, insight and honest feedback on our program and I know he has the skills to appropriately handle most any situation/student he is faced with. Without reservation, I can recommend Kevin as a high performance driving instructor."

"...your offerings were of great assistance and were much appreciated! The post session exercises were really helpfully as well as your specific advice to my comments.  Thank you so much for taking the time to help me with the coaching. It was really helpful in recovering from Saturday's drama, and getting my head back in shape."

 

Rob Dunn, Lead Driver / Team Owner - West Coast Touring Cars

 

  

"As any serious racer knows, there is one thing a driver needs in order to be smooth and fast - relaxed concentration.  Kevin does a great job of coaching through the pre-race hours so that when you get into the car all outside distractions are minimized and you can go about the task of getting the best out of yourself and the race car.  Kevin is also great on the “in race” radio.  During my stints at the Pacific Northwest Endurance Race in 2006 Kevin’s clear communication kept me calm when craziness was happening all around and was incredibly encouraging as the car faltered in the final half hour – he wouldn’t accept frustration or anxiety, just good solid driving.  And when it’s over, the debriefing is clear so that the lessons learned are used to get to the next level.  Simply put, Kevin’s a great coach."
