[Jack Thompson]

I'm am some one who despite often finishing in the top ten, often gets lapped.  I will always keep an eye on the realtime leader board and do my best not to hold anyone up, especially if there is close racing, but I have had people who despite having 10 gaps front and back, pushing through when there wasn't a gap.

Can I also point out that it is the driver who is lapping's job to make sure it is safe to overtake as well.  If your unfortunate enough to catch someone as you enter a complex with a number of corners be patient and wait.

Also please don't feel you need to flash your lights.  If some one has had a number of chances to get out the way in sensible places then fair enough but otherwise it just comes over as arrogant.  I might be slower than you but I have a right to race as well.  You might think that if your not in the top three there's no place on the track for you but some of us ( most of us ) just aren't that good.

I agree with you on all your points, although I always flash my headlights when approaching backmarkers. Not as a sign of aggression but as a way of me alerting them that I'm approaching and saying 'look! I'm here!' - I never thought this may come accross as rude to others though.
