I was at Shenandoah this past spring with another club which had placed me in an advanced group (I think by accident but I know they had spaces to fill). I asked the chief instructor to move me down to novice and if there was no space there put me in intermediate. He would not. So I went out for a couple of laps and realized I was way in over my head and came back to the pits. Since therre didn't appear to be any organization as far as checking wristbands at the start of each session, I waited until the next novice session and went out. After that I went out for the intermediate session which I blended into the rest of the weekend. I have not nor do I think I will register with that group again.
