It might be cause you are doing 180s in your car or treating it hard and all the oil is going to one side of the pan and it is telling you that it does not sense any oil in there. mine used to do that when I used to pull the ebrake and do some 180s running away and playing tag with my club....speaking of that..is there anyone that is in the Georgia area that wants to join my 3rd gen only club?

You've already checked the oil level, right? If the level is ok and it flashes during straight, constant speed driving then there are two possibilities:
1. your oil pressure sensor is bad
2. one or more of the parts inside your engine is worn enough that as the oil heats up it flows fast enough through the larger clearances (due to wear) that the oil pressure drops enough for the light to come on.
