It is unfortunate that HP and PSM allows poor drivers to run reasonable (not quick) lap times. It is up to an aware instructor corps to separate the car from the driver, and make their decisions based purely upon ability. The general driver pool, however, is not able to make that distinction, and so you hear the cry "I'm passing everybody, why aren't I moving up?"This is why Larry is a responsible instructor. I would trust his judgement any day.
