I dont test very much, which I think is unusual and not the norm, I just race.
I think you have the right idea in a pre season shake down - but testing is not racing and don't treat it as such.
To help benefit from testing consider:
In testing do not get involved with any other driver on or off track. Do you own thing. Do not compare notes ect.
Its not a social 'friends get together' either.
Be 100% pre prepared - do not take a shed testing - you'll waste money and time.
Have a plan what you want to test and stick to it.
Old and new tyres perform differently.
Drive within you means - DO NOT trash your kart/car.
Mid week testing is usually quieter.
Take sandwiches.
There's nothing much more to it.
