Lucky guy - I got blue flagged for trying to overtake some wimp 28 year old who was playing at being a race driver and also lectured for doing over 100 mph on the track ??????? I`d driven at over 90 on the way down to Oulton Park in my 320i beamer auto and wasn`t going to miss the chance of a burn up on the track.As for the wimp - well he did apologise afterwards for getting in my way when I explained the facts of life to him................................ NEVER get in the way of a Masterchef when he is concentrating - lol
such modesty is touching! (something)

Isn't the blue flag waved when someone is trying to overtake you.

Me either, but that was only because I was the only one on the track.

"On the track"---

That was an ideal I frequently found myself striving for.

My ambition is to live long enough to be a problem for my great grand kids...

"Pedant" - one who is chiefly concerned with insignificant detail - OK OK the blue flags were for the wimp in front - the speed I was going I thought they were for me !! Sheesh !! No horn,no indicators,no radio,no wipers,no lights - the thing was positively dangerous - hee hee hee !!

Do you ever lay awake at night, wondering if the fridge light has actually turned off after you've closed the door?
