Autocar report

Amanda featured in the 25th September 2002 issue of Autocar magazine. Motoring journalist Ben Oliver had a day with the SEAT driving school where Amanda instructs and returned with a glowing account.

The following excerpts are re-printed with the kind permission of Editor Steve Fowler.

THE FASTER SEX
A driving school operated solely by women? Prepare to be taught a thing or two

"...a few laps on of the high-speed circuit with Amanda, who's instruction on lines & braking is the clearest I've ever had...."

"I've had it all", says Amanda Whitaker, who races single seaters and sports cars and has lined on the grid with Montoya and Darren Manning. "I've had blokes actually pat me on the knee and say, 'It's okay dear, I know what I'm doing .' But some guys prefer to have a woman instructor - they think it's more of a challenge to their machoism to have a man pointing our their errors. And we can tell if you're any good by the time you've changed from first to second."
