Hear is the question: Is it customary for a driver that contacts another, to seek out the contacted driver and apologize/reason with or explain the contact?
This is why I ask. (three different team drivers BTW)
The Ridge, last year, rear ended, bent exhaust, no visit. (Driver could not be identified in the mirror)
The last race at Portland, hit in the door and rear fender in turn 1, no visit. (Driver could not be identified in the mirror) Our other car, hit in the rear portion of the rear fender same corner, no visit. (Driver could not be identified in the mirror)
So, other than the $1k in damage to our cars, if we had them fixed by others, what ever happened to a quick visit and discussion? I find this lack of consideration disturbing. I will not make the assumption, nor should others, that it is endemic to one class or group, but I truly believe that each one of us should really ask ourselves if "rubin' is truly racin". Just because it wasn't reported, does not mean that it didn't happen or is in anyway acceptable.
Stuff happens, just step up and show a little respect for your fellow racer and their equipment.
