I had never done an official track day before.

But, since I’m a cop, we sometimes get to drive on closed roads on military places to practice driving at the limit and doing some car interpellations.

But we’re not looking for a fast time, more for a safe drive and interpellation.

We also have courses where the road is wet or you have to drive on a plate and the plate moves to unbalance your car car and you have to catch it without arming anyone.

So I’d say I’m used to driving faster than most people while taking into account other drivers around me, but clearly a bad pilot on a track😅
