Bruce and All, 
 
 I'm sorry about the tone of my note. Not intended. I'm interested in getting quality track time in my daily driver. I am looking for experiences specific to driver conduct as I feel this is a huge issue at racing event and at some lapping day... This is a show stopper for me. Also I would like to avoid skid pad and other exercises from a time and abuse of tre perspecitve. I don't intend to argue their value. Again its a potential show stopper for me to find out that I have a full day of cone events at a driving event. I've done it and I  will not spend a whole day off from work to do it.  I have other skills that need more work. 
 
 As for experience, I am moderately experience.
