On the Racer 5 days there is always a novice class where passing is only allowed on the front straight and the straight between turns 1 and 2. That's a good set of rules for feeling comfortable on a first day at the track - you know you are not going to get stuffed in a corner. The tradeoff is that sometimes if they have a big Racer 5 school out there on the CBR 125s and they get spread out, you can find yourself stuck behind one for most of the lap, every lap. That can be really frustrating, even for a newish track rider, when there are mutliple places on the track where you could just safely slip by them, but it is not allowed (like, coming out of turn 6, where the 125s accelerate about as quickly as a lawn tractor).
