You shall not pass!


Seriously though, are we not allowed to pass unless someone gives us the wave by on the straights? I just read the instructions that were emailed out, but I wasn't sure if we had to wait for permission to pass or if it was just a nice gesture.

Will there be any instructors or experienced people to ride along? This will be my first road course action ever and some tips would be very helpful. I've done a few autocrosses but that's the extent of my driving experience.

Thanks for the tip. I'll probably leave all the computer controls on at first and maybe switch to the competitive driving mode once I get a better feel for everything. I do notice it's tail happy with too much gas out of the corners, I have to learn to feather the throttle more, I can't mash it like with the Talon haha.
