They will say nothing. The blinking light stores no codes, I have had them about one in three track sessions so far this year and pulled codes immediately after every one. I managed to get a hard light after a lot of running in very cold weather last weekend and yes it was an 0301. It's a stretch, but the blinking seems to coincide with very cold weather or not-quite-warmed-up-enough condition of very hard driving. Maybe the maps are a bit too lean in the cold?
My experience is track only, never seen a CEL on the street.

A P0455/456 will not make the CEL flash..
Tell them to try again cause I ain't buyin it.
There a only a few issues that will make a CEL flash..mainly misfires and O2 sensor related codes...
