NYSpeed Track Day #2 - Feedback

As for how the event went. Was fun as usual, run groups went smoothly for the most part. Sorry for killing about 15 minutes of Run Group 2’s first session :frowning: Was good seeing everyone and seeing a few driver’s really improve. Here are my major complaints

CHECK YOUR EGO AT THE DOOR.
I dont care how much track experience someone has, passing in corners and braking zones is dangerous and puts people in danger. We’re up there to have fun, this is not an instructor group and is not a race. That one really lit me up.

Point by’s need to be MANDATORY for EVERY run group. The proper way to display a point by, and when it’s appropriate needs to be covered with everyone at the start of the day. Sticking a hand out the window and waving doesnt convey a clear message. I noticed a bunch of people doing that.

If you notice someone in your mirrors that is faster than you, DO NOT wait till half way down the straight to let them pass. You are better off going through the next section of corners and lifting at the start of the next straight. Then you should point them by.

IMO, there were wayyyy to many red flags. An off or a spin (again, IMO) should NOT be a red flag, it should be a yellow. The session should continue at a spirited pace and that person should report back in to check over their car in the pits before going back out. No need to stop the session, but again, that’s in my opinion.

I think that about covers the issues I had. Still a great time, and highly recommened for a safe intro to track/seat time.
