Great point! If you want your track to be successful you have to get people paying for time more than 1 or 2 days a week. Not only is lap counting important but I would love to see a track have at least 1 marshal to keep me from taking that walk of shame multiple times from the driver's stand (I think this is especially important at offroad tracks). The marshal could be a great source of information and opportunity for add on sales as they provide the practicing driver's with information like "The fastest guys are running X tires, and Y springs which we happen to have on sale in the hobby shop". These types of services add value and encourage people to spend money at your track.
