This blog entry from You Suck at Racing has a commentary by the author during a race:

The first half is the driving line, but the second half discusses racecraft, passing, etc as voiceover narration to the race. Pretty interesting.

Here is a direct link to the video:

Thanks for the comments. Personally, I'm usually very calm and easy going, but in competition, things change. The better I know the rules - written and unwritten - the less chance of anyone getting hurt.
Steve, I appreciate that video. The pass in the last minute is a great example of patiently waiting for an opportunity and using it. That RX-7 was not going to let him by voluntarily ...and using the other Miata to block in the straight was great.
