Open pit lane means there are no sessions, you can go out on track whenever you want.

Exactly.

Normally track days come in two flavours - sessioned and open pit. The beauty of open pit is that you can come and go as you please, so there's no panic if you miss your 'session'. With open pit you properly get your money's worth.

Also to answer a couple of PMs I've had AFAIK it's the full GP circuit!
