Agreed -- this is all part of racing, and it's true at any level. The 13/13 rules for some series help mitigate a lot of this. The 13/13 is essentially that if you cause an accident you are on probation for 13 months, and then if you have another one you are suspended for 13 months.
Some groups have 13/13 some do not. In Porsche Club racing all groups have it. But, always a but, I've never had more fun than bump drafting Todd Reid, or rubbing sides with the guy I was racing this past weekend in the Integra. Racing is diverse -- for people who want to keep their cars shiney, PCA racing is the thing, everyone has 13/13. If you want to be able to bump/grind then NASA or SCCA might be the thing.
NASA Mid-Atlantic does have a 13/13 race group which is the Autobahn group for spec e30, gts 1-2 I think, 944 cup, etc....
I'm torn -- I like being able to make contact and have racing incidents with no oversight in my Integra. I also don't want that in my Porsche, it's too expensive to repair!!!
Quote:Joe, Probably would not enjoy racing then. The two GTS4 guys that wrecked talked afterwards and seemed fine. Darren and I talked to both of them. If you race, you know it is not if, just when it will happen.
