I actually think this is part of the problem. Damn near everyone has timing devices in their cars now even in damn DE1 sessions. There are sessions and run groups for setting fast laps, but DE sessions are not meant for that. If someone is on a fast lap or what they think is a fast lap they are not going to want to lift to let a BRZ/FR-S by. They will say to themselves, I will point by and then assume he didn't want it as I floor the throttle.
