Did the Lotus driver leave, or were you able to watch him drive?
Unfortunately there is a lot of "my car is more powerful so even if you catch me in the turns I will not point you by" attitude at the track. The instructors can do a lot to help people learn to play nicely with each other, but some are incorrigible--some, but really not very many at all. it's just courtesy and submerging ego for a bit, until skills come closer to ego. In the GVC BMW CCA two-day instructor training course that is one of the case studies, and it's a good one!
