PCA vs BMWCCA

[I love this car!]

There really is no "standard" for DE's.  Each group has their own ideas of how fast "fast" is, and just how to get there.   Even in PCA, there are subtle and not so subtle differences between chapters.

It is just like hot sauce, what seems mild to you may be too hot for someone else. 

The real key is people having fun in a safe environment.  Those same folks driving fast (for them) would most likely shudder at the thought of clipping a tire wall.  Those driving their only car on track have a different risk perspective then those with track only, or track dedicated cars .  That little slip/slide/stepping out that is part & parcel of a fast lap for us, could really peg the excitement meter for someone exploring the track once or twice a year.

We all define fun in our own way.  Celebrate their (and your own) discoveries!
