I understand what you are saying since I used to race motorcycles and you must remain focused on where you want to go but someone else posted that the track operates differently on these special types of track days for novices and moving around on the road (to get the best line) is basically changing lanes on these particular days??? There are so many different facets to this entire scenario that I can see all sides but it just seems bizarre to me that an incident like this, which probably happens very frequently with novice drivers, isn't already covered under track guidelines by the track operators. Just like with people in everyday traffic situations, problems almost always happen because of "right of way" and I find it hard to believe they don't have this covered.
