Race 1

I had spoken to the driver in question after I had a similar, longer lasting issue in one of my races (I think R1?). Super nice guy and he's trying to get up to speed in a new car/environment; he did a lot better after getting through the first race or two. Also had an issue with another AI driver that parked it in front of me in T13/14 then blew me away on the front straight.
I took Will's advice and approached these drivers directly, and it worked well. I'm not at all bothered about it at this point, as I am still learning how to be more assertive and execute passes on slower in-class cars, which would help if I'm ever stuck behind another new "blocking" out of class car in the future.
We probably need to do a better job as a group on educating newcomers about out of class racing and watching mirrors, as this issue comes up every time we have a (much needed) group of new guys come into AI to race with us, but overall this weekend was a lot better than Cresson.

I offered to give the position back to Jander after the race. I have been thinking a lot about it since, what do you guys think about these situations? I've been burned many times by lap traffic and I just have to deal with it, seems like thats how racing goes.
