What I hate about the buggies, is when you marshall the car brilliantly, only for the driver to nail the throttle before the car has settled. It then goes into a fitt of spasms for a few feet and then ends up on its roof again!?
But because you've already marshalled it, this all happens when you're walking back to your point, and sometimes your looking the othe way down the track and don't notice it.

BUT the worst thing is you then get the driver (and his family) shouting at you as if its your fault!!

Oh by the way Jimmy, you did throttle up a little early on sunday when I marshalled you after the tripple during the final....tutt...tutt....
Luckily my skin got in the way of my blood so I was well protected.

I'm sure you just kept crashing there just to keep me busy.
