This is what Aaron intended in his practice group proposal. Eliminating nov/expert separate practices and creating new practice groups by general times. I like the idea of 4 groups, but any combination of times/# of groups could be discussed. Obviously there will still be the fastest and slowest in each timed group, but maybe we can create a closer range of laptimes?

The slow/medium expert practices have developed a big disparity in lap times because the 250s are so popular (250s are good, the mixed practice is kind of crazy). And I believe a number of medium experts have migrated to the fast ex group to get away from the slow/med combined practice. We also saw some 250 novices migrate to slow expert early to get out of novice practices--which also have big disparity in lap times.

The AFM assigns practice groups with race registration, could we implement this?
