Try not to get into this habit at TrackDays.

It's fine to follow a bit to learn the line, but the risk of injury goes way up when bikes stay together for too long.

First guy crashes, and instead of harmlessly sliding out, the second guy follows him and runs him over... or crashes behind him and his bike slides into the first guy.

If you can easily follow someone, then pass them.

Point is, ride your own ride... on the street and on the track.
