I agree that racing and DE are different when it comes to learning race craft. However, IMO, not learning anything in DEs that help you in racing is completely inaccurate. How many racers do you know that miss flags? A lot of people get into racing without having developed the skill to catch a sliding car or track awareness. The best racers I know can place the car where they want on the track subconsciously and do not worry about whether they can keep control. You can develop a lot of skills you use in racing at DEs. Just have to pay attention.

X2, there's a reason most CRs include a pre event DE. DEs give you a chance to find the racing line before the green flag drops! I seen racers that look like they could use a LOT more seat time on tracks before they go racing. |
