That said, I agree that if an out-of-class faster car/driver comes up on you that you should let him by in a way that does not cause either of you to give up pace, and of course if a pair of out-of-class cars bear down on you that you should try to let them both by, but it's an overstatement to say that one NEVER races cars out of class. Not your circumstance in the race you discuss, but there is a desire to race for the over-all win, so if there is an out-of-class car that is behind you, but not dramatically faster, there should be a race.
Thoughts?
