I did a half-assed search attempt, but didn't find my answer.
I've heard that "racing" during a trackday is frowned upon (and can/will get you kicked out) by many trackday organizations. I realize that the lessons learned will greatly improve my riding ability. However, I'd like objective proof of any improvement.
Do you ever get timed laps during a trackday? Otherwise, how would I translate any improved skills into a lap time reduction?
Basically, I want to know how slow I really am. I hear a lot of talk on this forum about lap times at certain tracks like NHMS (where I'd do a trackday). I also hear a lot about how upgraded suspension can shave 1-2 seconds off a lap time or how some person shaved 5 seconds off their times by doing X number of trackdays...
I don't need to know what my lap times are, but I'd be interested to see where I stack up against pro's and other newbies alike.
