No need to apologise, Max, you know all of this stuff fascinates me. What colour is his helmet?

Shame on you Viva for your somewhat indelicate post, I believe the subject of Max's 'specifications' is not a fit subject for discussion on a public forum.
You should know that we have members of a delicate disposition who frequent Delta's Tea Break, Mike, John, Terence. Why! Delta himself even is unaccustomed to matters of such a personal nature being bandied about is so cavalier a fashion (Vauxhall jokes are forbidden.)

No doubt Mrs Max will have view of this, as well as his specifications.

I expect a pubic apology in short order.

If so, presumably the 'powers that be' are worried that racing will die out due to the amount of more mature drivers not being able to pass the Stress ECG!

No ECG here either, you're just recommended to have one every two years. And new for 2017 if you've been licensed before just just need a favorable advice form the doctor not a complete check up as was the case. As you say Mike, very few accidents and when someone dies its because he his too old or suffers a heart attack…

Does that apply to an international licence as well?

I did wonder how some of the drivers we see at the PA events were getting past any type of medical?!!!

Hang on, chaps . I woz Viva wot started it, turning an innocent debate on myopia in to a sleazy discussion of matters personal to Max.

Now why is he called Max in the first place?

When the midwife delivered me she took one look and said Oh it's just a bauble.

Maybe in Max's case it was a somewhat different reaction.

Yes it does obviously! About your and Mike's comment, I do agree of course if you mean they need a shrink too.
But hang on our instances are probably preparing a super licence (supper lie sens?) and will teach us very shortly how to drive a classic. It won't take long if it can bring extra money.
Imagine that some are allowed to drive sideways, the others not?
They can come anytime, at my age the list of bad excuses is endless And at my age the list of good excuses is forgotten !!

I could take issue with a number of statements made here young sir but I do believe that impersonating another forum member (or just insinuating that you are/were another forum member) is a punishable offence!
(Please also note the way I specifically inserted the word 'forum' before the word following it to prevent any additional smutty innuendo!)

Alright, somehow, for some reason my normally exquisite English has suffered a few lapses of late, posts riddled with spelling mistakes and grammatical errors, causing me to look foolish here.

Please accept my sincere apologies,

Booble.
