Warning...Anecdote. A junior racer was assigned to the fast group at the track training. He rolls off the track, cooked, red face and etc. He rolls up to the coach and starts to say something and the coach says, "I think you should get back out there." Junior accelerates and turns himself inside out to get back in. I only heard this because I was sitting on the apron waiting for my turn on the track.

Without third party coaching one can decide to do whatever one is able to talk oneself into and justify it. Why not?
