The first time at Track Days you are in C Group, which is Lead-and-Follow with a Panoz pace car. They do four sessions, with each session going faster, so that you get a feel for the track. After that, you move up to B Group, where you are on your own with the only restriction that you can only pass on the straight-aways. Panoz keeps it pretty safe; they will black flag drivers off the track who are reckless. Typically there are 20-30 cars on the track in each group, so you get some first hand experience in running against a variety of cars & drivers. Once you do well in B Group, you move up to A Group where the drivers have more experience and typically the cars are faster.
