I'm going to disagree with you. Basically anyone first time at the track doesn't know what their doing and needs monitored and hand held? If your in the sport its most likely because you have done other things in your life successfully. IMO, morning sessions are used to identify those who need additional coaching, it's very evident.
Track days shouldn't be about "Making lemonade out of lemons". Especially at the amount of coin it takes. That format is really turning people off, especially experienced track day riders and ex-racers. People were pissed the day I went and by the sounds of it, going down hill.
The saying use to go, the only two levels you wanted to be in were N and A groups. The I group usually was the meat grinder. No way would I recommend this to experienced guys going to Mid-O being stuck in N group.
