Because every current Corvette owner is perfect 
There are good and bad in the legacy Corvette crowd... there will be good and bad in new people coming on board. This isn't commenting on the OP either way... don't know him/her... but having a "newer" crowd is no different than having the "older" crowd except maybe there are some new ideas, thoughts, opinions and views... I know this can be scary for some
OP... you might want to clarify your post as I can't follow you. What exactly is driving circles around each other? Is it passing and then being passed over and over? Seems kind of like something I would have done when I was 16 but who am I to judge

My C7 is my first Corvette. How much time spent on the road with another corvette is polite?
In my new awesome world of driving a new C7 I have passed a C7 on the road going more leisurely than I like and we passed in a few seconds,
but i also spent a few miles each driving circles around each other with a lowered C5 just to acknowledge we are in the same CLUB.
I had more fun driving circles around each other. Which do you prefer?

I think what you need to do is find a Corvette club to cruise with and have fun playing on the roads also. If you pass a C7 and he wants to play he will catch up. If you want to just cruise then stay with him until your bored then move on. Just remember the polite thing no matter what decision you make is to wave. Good luck and be safe on the roads.
