Oulton Park driftday Feb 21st, MX5 OC discounts

 Hi Fellas

 

Trackaction-Online
is running another driftday at Oulton Park on Feb 21st.  This is run on
the two low friction tarmac stages , these tight twisty circuits are surfaced
with a polished tarmac that is ideal for practicing oversteer control and drift
techniques. The low grip finish is very easy to drive and slide on and has the
added bonus of being very kind to your tyres compared with most types of tarmac
and concrete. This is the ideal event for rear or four wheel drive cars and
anyone who wants to learn more about how their car reacts in a slide without
risking lamposts, armco or the boys in blue!  It’s also great fun, a more
relaxed event than a normal trackday but still with plenty of wheel
time [H]

 

Our
normal rate for the event is £140 but we have agreed a club discount with IanP
so members can come along for only £120.  Passengers can be signed in for
just £10 and extra drivers for £35.  We limit the numbers that we allow on
the day to ensure that everyone gets plenty of tracktime and we include free
instruction for anyone that wants it.

 

Please
post up any questions that you have or let us know if you’d like to come along
and I’ll sort out booking details and discount codes.

 

Cheers

 If my car is better by then, I will be. The 350 OC are also attending this event. One of my friends invited me. It should be an ace day and some rwd education for most. PM me if you like,

 Hi all,
Just to update to on this event, what a superb day!!
Low friction tarmac + mx5 = FUN…
I didn’t use even 1mm of tyre tread as it was so slippery. The weather was so good I had the top down all day and the sun even came out for a few hours.The worse bit for me was the drive there and back, as I live in kent and its 240miles in each direction. I used about 1/2 a tank of fuel on the track and a whole tank getting there.
If anybody wants to learn how to drift their car properly, under full control, with the safety of grass run offs and not getting in trouble with the law, go to one of these events.
Have a look at these pics…[:)]

Sounds like real fun, I’m disappointed that I couldn’t make it in the end (family commitments).  I can’t see the pictures, am I looking in the wrong place, it wouldn’t be the first time?

 

Cheers
