Well I doubt he was off boost when he passed him 
Thats what I was thinking

i agree with this statement, i think a lot of people think they are racing something, when the other person really isnt racing and assume they are and think they can just sail past these things.
Xedos, made a good argument a few years ago that you need at least 100bhp/ton advantage over something to significantly pull away from it.
