Tom,
I had done parade laps with my 427 cobra during vintage races at Watkins Glen prior to getting my racing license and we were told the same thing. No laying back to increase distance to the car in front of you so that you could then speed up to a speed higher than the pace car to catch up no racing and no unsafe driving. Track officials have no tolerance for people driving road cars with minimal safety protections at high rates of speed. The idea is to have the opportunity to go around a track, wave at your friends and get the feel of what it feels like to drive a race track.
Hope that everyone has a good time.
Jim
