Yes fair comments TeeJ but I did say they will let you overtake on the straights but should have said not round the bends. I understand this and appreciate it but I went to one at Silverstone several years back and I am sure they (the orgnisers) deliberately sent out a bog standard 1300 metro out just to slow every one up (I was driving 500+ bhp Camaro). After several laps of parading around the Luffiled complex at literal 30 odd mph I got frustrated and took several cars in one go including some around bends so out came the black flags predictably and that was it. Another one was at an army base and we had to slow right down to go through a chicane made up of cones because there were blokes playing golf! Trouble was I hung the tail out a bit and took all the cones out and was sent home yet again (bloody vandal I know).
