      I might just sit behind anyone doing 40, in a road that is safe enough to do the full 60, and constantly flash my lights.

            Wow crazy. Never seen it on A19 anyhow and there lots of overtaking when it's not too risky

              I flash people when they do it to me if they cut the nose off me and i need to slow down to maintain a safe gap, but i often get it happening to me.
              Roll on the remap so i can dump some black some on their car

                I will admit though, it was worse in the Evo but that was generally people who were coming towards me flashing as I don't think they realised just how quickly I could pass

                  Yep, I get that all the time. Somehow, somewhere along the line, it's been percieved as not very polite thing to do, likq queue jumping almost. And of course, we're british, we ARE polite, in EVERY instance of life. That's usually when my car magically loses the ability go above 30mph dead, no matter what the speedlimit is. ****s.

                    I get people that do 30mph in 60mph limits, then decide to do 40mph in 30mph limits.

                        A50 roundabout three days ago I'm on the roundabout in outside lane, So I would be in outside lane when entring the duel carrage way, a guy from the inside lane cuts across the car infront of me as he has made a fupar,

                        so guy infront of me stops, gives him lights, horn and hand remarks, but hasn't realised he has stopped on the roundabout I move round him and pull into inside lane a give him a little pip as he is in a bad area to have stopped.

                        He gives me the finger as a lorry just clips him trying to stop and get round him.

                        But as you say Tim it's happened to me before over take safely and get flashed.

                        P.s would love to see reaction with Mark in Turbo doing it lol.

                            I had some ******** in a Beemer trying to run me off the road when I first got the mr2. Ended up with one side in the ditch as I passed them. As soon as I pulled out to overtake he went in the middle of the road.
