I am still giggling at this

Last night driving up a duel carriageway not over the top speeds, just 60-70 and pull in behind an escort turbo D (both lanes had traffic)

SO i wait safely behind him with a good distance, and figure out when he pull sin ill over take safely. He must have a bee bonnet, as he spots me and pulls back out, and is almost trying to prevent me form over taking, at one point it all gets a little heated, and hes driving on the white line to prevent me.

I look down at me Speedo and BLIMEY too fast (things got a little heated) im back right off, and he pulls away, just as this happens FLASH FLASH he gets bagged by a Gatos going well i figured just over 90, me? i went through at 60 LOL

he instantly pulled back in and dropped his speed to about 40, me and my friend drove passed almost crying with laughter, to see to thugs scowling at us hahahahah.

Sorry, thought it might put a smile on your face...

Yea, that'll show up on the Gatso picture .

I know it's the natral thing to do, but you've already been caught, so why bother slowing down after the event?

Good story though...

Apparently if you brake fast enough and change your speed by more than 2mph the gatso cancels the pic??

dunno if it true, but was in Performance Bikes...

Very true Dizzy but I guess if you see the Gatso at hte last minute and brake you stand a chance.. not if you don't notice until the first flash (aaaarrrggghhhh savour of the universe)
