Here's a good word of advice.
If your following someone around for awhile and they finally point you by, take the next 3 corvers very easy. You may find the car in front of you that you thought was holding you up wasn't. If you were driving hard, you may want to just stay behind them and back off a little to give them some space.
Lots of mistakes are made trying to pull away from that guy. Ask Terry Lee. I believe his little adventure came shortly after passing EE. I've found myself a little over my head right after getting a point by too.

Fortunatly I learned the lesson with no damage.
