Things we say!!!!

Following on from AdamAscar's emabarrasing moments thread have you ever had a competitor contradict/emphasise a marshalling comment.

With apologies to both drivers involved last Saturday my partner made two comments both of which the driver concerned promptly contradicted.

The first one concerned our pristine gravel trap which up to than no-one had visited; she commented on how nice it was and we immediately had someone drive into it.

The second was much more spectacular, the conversation went as follows:
Her 'Isn't that car in the Enduro race?'
Me 'not now he isn't.'
Coming out of our corner he had spun 180° and then slid broadside into an accommodating tyrewall. This resulted in a suspended tow and unfortunately a nonappearance in the Enduro race.

Hey that sounds like me...a couple of weeks ago we'd had nothing in the GT all day, I said I was bored wanted something to happen and with that we had three porsches in, two looked written off and the other one was close!

On post at the Belgian national motorcycle championships in Ostend on the Saturday my collegue turned to me during the Super Motos,s and said "No ones fallen yet" at the point of yet you guessed a moto got ot very highside and gravity took hold bouncing rider and bike. Rider ok bike was out later.
This was an excellent 2 days meeting with very hot weather and the hospitality from our Belgian marshals was as warm as ever.
The Saturday was marred with a fatal on my post which was very messy and involved all 3 of us brits, and from myself and the other 2 britsh marshals with me our thoughts go out to his family and friends.
Apart from that as it was my second year to this I cant wait to go again.
Thanks to all the belgians on our post turn 5.
