You just run shallow angle and a slow inside line and wait for them to chicken out when the lines intersect. it makes it boring because you either have to run wide and stuff your car trying to block out the passing car or run the bitch line so you want get passed, and if the judges do anything about it the crowd gets uppity because they don't understand that passing isn't winning.
Dan did it 5 times at Nopi Nationals because the Judges told everyone to be out by the wall on the man line. Dan won every time because passing = a win
Formula D has a No Passing rule.
D1 doesn't have it, and it results in some good moves ala koguchis, which was more or less caused by a big fuck up and save by Kumakubo, but I geuss they just have a better grasp on how to win right or something.

That thought had crossed my mind. If pass=win instantly what is to keep people from just going for that every single time. There are definitely some instances where going wide in a corner is the right thing and better form yet it the person went shallow they could pass and just win by being a duche.
Good point
