I am actually surprised that noone is willing to bash, even racers. Most racers "bash" during their non-race times, well, they really go to the track and practice but that is part of bashing in my opinion.

You can ask your racer friends to go to the off-race days at the track and run the track with them. They might have perfecting their jumping skills and making tight turns flawlessly as their primary focus, but the pressure of racing is not there.
