Darren, in my opinion you summarized the whole DE philosophy very well. DE is a great place to learn and we get to do that at our own pace with what we are comfortable with while having fun the whole time. Getting promoted into the next run group is nice but it's really just a category that a driver is put into based on a number of factors. Sometimes they are correctly placed, others they are not. I can tell you and everyone else participating at an event that I push my comfort zone a little farther each time when I'm on the track but my #1 goal each event I go to is to have my car sitting in my garage on Sunday evening in the same shape it was on Friday. I take advantage of every tool the event has to offer, all the in car instruction, the conversation with the instructors in-between sessions, everything. I would like to thank every instructor that has spent time with me for sharing their knowledge, it has kept me safe and given me the confidence to stretch my comfort zone each time I have been on track.
