Having run a lot of enduros both in cars that were near the front & ones at the back, I find this kind of discussion odd. Traffic is a huge part of racing, always will be.

Bitching that traffic caused a problem for you is like blaming it on the fact that your tire pressures changed when the they warmed up. Its part of what goes on out there, another factor that you can count on happening, but have very little control over.

There are lots of clubs that offer time trial events.

No, having issues with cars out of your class and having to be held up by them is NOT the same as bitching about changing tire pressure. (i DO have control over my pressures, as well...)

And enduros are, obviously different than sprint races.

I agree that we can't always run all classes at full race distances, but having your race F-ed up from the first lap to the last by another guy in another class is kinda frustrating, esp when blocking is the issue. (I know, I know, go talk to the stewards...liek THAt will do any good...better planning avoids HAVING to talk to Stewards..)

ITS/ITB is OK, and even ITC would be fine, as passes would be easy...ITC cars corner as well as ITS cars, but the ITS cars can put lots of distance on an ITC car between corners. Same with ITA and ITR.

I would MUCH rather deal with that kind of traffic.
