I presume this equates to a subset of what you get on one of the First Lotus thingies?
More of a track day introduction package IMO. Andy Walsh's is more about car control, this is more of an all round event, culminating in a 'standard' track session - good for newbies and people who've not thought about going on track before (also good as a refresher for those who have).
I've introduced a number of people to trackdays via this event.
I also used it last year to get my other half used to the S2000 and what it could (and couldn't) do on the limit before I put her on the insurance.
