I would find it hard to believe that in real life a Pfalz could make a right turn in anywhere near the radius or turn rate of a Camel. That rotary engine pulls hard. Again, left turns are a different story and I freely admit that I have no idea what the results would be there.

Let me clarify, I mean, in the simulation called RoF I wouldn't be surprised if the Pfalz D.IIIa had a smaller radius than the Camel.

In Mig-77's tests, the Pfalz D.IIIa turns a complete circle in ~11 seconds at 120kmh (sustained). The Camel completes a circle in ~9s at 130kmh (you can get slower but it takes a while to settle down that much!). So, it looks like I'm wrong about the smaller radius. My guess second guess would be that the Pfalz D.IIIa has a very good instantaneous turn, and it takes the Camel a long time to lose airspeed during a hard turn. Those two things together might give the temporary impression that the Pfalz D.IIIa can turn with the Camel.

Hitting your own slipstream is truth. In the Tiger Moth it was a source of pride on my part to cut my own slipstream in a tight turn. It indicated I had balanced elevator and rudder properly. It was not buffeting but a slight jerk on the controls. This is why I have raised the issue of the Pfalz turn. On more than one occasion I have been in a sustained turn which would have washed off any residual energy the Pfalz may have had and still the best I could do was to maintain distance and arc. On a few occasions I have been the one with the energy advantage yet still am unable to close.
