Never got in trouble for late braking, tire squealing, or cone killing. Also got a free lap on 2 occasions because I caught up to the car in front of me.
Surprised to hear they are dumbing it down, that's a real bummer!

Same experience here in NJ, both coaches I got over the radio worked well enough that I didn't feel I missed out from not having in car navigation/instruction.
I could imagine coaching from that perspective takes a bit longer to hone in on a course for these guys, so with the abbreviated sessions they have at the UDE tour events vs the UDE, plus the vaguely different safety protocols from state to state, I could understand the experience being drastically different from event to event.
