Bob, I also agree with the yellow. I'll go slow for the opening lap or so of the 1st session of the day, but that's it.
As for the lead follow, the only issue may be that the path that the leader is taking may be a little different from their instructor (i.e. carousel @ SP). Some regions will do this at the start of day 1. This also puts some additional time on the instructors. I'd rather see a skid pad.

Quote:I am with you on the yellow, drivers need to be smart. Students should be listening to their instructors so yellow is should not make a difference.
One suggestion would be a lunchtime lead follow for students at low speed corner with and instructor leading, one at the tail in groups of say 10 cars. This LOW speed and it helps install the line into their heads. Speed should be slow enough not to use the brakes.
