I'm glad you think that you can speak for all people, but the fact of the matter is that people have different reasons for wanting to participate in schools like those. Sure, some do it for the experience, but I can absolutely guarantee you that others do it to actually learn things like how to take the correct (and best) line around a race track. If it were truly about nothing but the experience of getting behind the wheel of a race car, then instructors teaching driving lines wouldn't be necessary.

If there's one thing you should realize in life, people do things for all kinds of different reasons.
