Oulton Park, Nov 7th

I know it’s a long way off but I’ve just got the email from Ian.

Anyone planning on going?  [6]

Jon

 What’s happening?

 

See above :wink:

 

 Booked [H]

[Y]

 

Ummm…am I being thick but I don’t know who Ian is and why he would be emailing anyone. I know Oulton Park is a race track. Are we talking track day or something else?

Sorry Mate, I should maybe be a little more descriptive in my thread titles!

OP is the last track day of the year, Ian P is our motorsport guru who holds the mailing list for all those who have signed up to recieve emails regarding forthcoming events.

Weather permitting it should be a good one!

 Hoping to go, will be my 1st track day,

can you use any car or dose it have to be an mx5.

??

booked in[H]

 Yep, all paid up too now.

See you all there, lets hope for Nov sunshine, I have a friend who goes to OP on his bike and he says its a real dog in the wet with all those cambers!

yeah was watching some youtube clips of the track… looks stunning but not a lot of run off …[:$][:)]

Ah ha, now I can put a face to the avatar!!!

Yep, I agree, what a cracking day, I sometimes feel sorry for the MG guys, all that work organising the event and then they spend half the sessions under the car with a spanner!

Sorry we had to leave you all with a session still to go but had a long drive.  I hope ‘Ginger Nutz’ sorted his overheating problem by the end…

Locke-alike, you were the point of conversation on the way back, our plan next year is to try and keep up!!!

great to meet you all, here’s looking forward to more of the same in 2010…

Jon

 yes mate was me, had some nice tussles round the track… with ya [;)]

 

roll on next year when the weathers a bit better [H]

must say that red mx of yours gos well.

 

Cheers mate!  I said to my friend on the second session I was sure you had forced induction because you were so quick on the straights, couldn’t believe it when you said you were running stock power!

Locke-alike, you out there yet with the vids from yesterday???I’m an impatient bu55er I know but I’m keen to see how out-of-shape I was through Hissies before you passed me!!!

I saw my mate again today for Remembrance service and he said he couldn’t believe how friendly everyone was…says a lot for the club methinks.

 Took some time putting the vid together,

first upload was tooooooo long so had to re-edit it

Well the video is here some is “incar” most is the low mounted camera

Didn’t catch the twitchy moments the batterys had gon waiting to get out of the Paddock…Doh

That is absolutely cracking Alan, the low mounted camera really picks up the speed.

Looking forward to the next event…roll on 2010  [:P]

 [:)] brill video clips there alan…

somenices one of us all, cant get over how fast your car is… :slight_smile:

 why wait that long?

 

Even if you dont want to drive yourself get along to as many events as you can and blag pass rides.

Try a novice only event from MSV…Cadwell isnt that far away. from £75

MOT car handling days Only £69
