What is "experienced"?

Experienced is when you can pull off overtakes on both sides, sometimes into the same corner.
Experienced is when you know better than the trackday organiser.
Experienced is when trackdays become a real bore, with too many drivers pussying around in their cars in front of you.

Or when you can get within 2 seconds of me
It's a good question isn't it?
If you use one organiser regularly I guess it's when you're too quick for the slower group and you found that out by being in it and getting bored.
If you swap around a bit then it's worth talking to the organiser and seeing who/what else is in which group on the particular day.
Some ays get a load of v. quick stuff and some not. That might alter the group you go in.

Surely number of trackdays attended is not necesserily positively correlated with increasing skill/awareness?
Just because you've sat through 20 odd breifings, doesn't indicate that you should go in the 'advanced' group, as this also becomes a function of the 'typical' speed of that group, not just the participants behind the wheel.
I'm sure Mr. Edwards would be quicker in a Clio than a novice in a Gallardo?

Experienced is when you know the storys off by heart they tell in the briefing. Yes we know that someone stopped to change a CD on the back straight at Snett and you lie when you said it was a couple of weeks ago because I've heard it everytime I've been there.
I've never heard that one. Must be pretty old if he wasn't fiddling with his ipod though.Melindi

Amazing, as the tread has been winking at me since Sunday.
