instructors/people that have been on the track before will be around to take you out for a few laps and stay with you for awhile on day 1 until you get your bearings. day 1 is not meant for the 1st time track person that would need help all day long, more for people that have been to other tracks and have experience, just need someone to point out the line on this track.

1st time track and thinking a couple laps will get you going is a recipe for disaster. the idea is people at the track on friday are the more experienced people that do not need help.

you would be better off doing the sat track day where instructors can be with you all day.

as an example, very few people at SP are signed to do solo laps until after 3 or more full days with instructors in the car the whole time.
