Trackday lessons to get the most from my Atom

Hi Guys,

I'd like to know if there are any suggestions for lessons/trainers for the Ariel Atom. I'd like to book a few trackdays at Brands Hatch for the purpose of lessons so I can get the most of my Atom.

Any suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.
