Glad you enjoyed it

Now, what you going to do about it?

It was a pleasure to take you and Paul (Polar964) round for a few laps . Oulton Park is IMO one of the great tracks in Britain. Not fast due to the relatively short straights (only possible to nudge 100 mph in a couple of places in mine) but very exhilerating due the closeness of the armco and the elevation changes.

p.s. I denigh all responsibility for giving you both the trackday bug

Great to meet you folks and thanks again for the taking me as passenger Steve. It was a good afternoon awesome motors and good weather. That yellow Carrera RS was some machine Russ (nice pic's btw).
Caught a snap of you going past the pits Steve, unfortunately you were travelling that fast my camera couldn't keep up! honest it is you!
Cheers

Is that Asbi's (Pub Landlord face needed like when mentioning the continent) Ferrari.....yellow RS. Off Speed Yellow - he was never confused. Looks like Pauls blue RS 993 as well.

Another good day missed then.

Enjoy the track and say goodbye to your bank account!

Indeed it was Kevin's RS. That car is as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside

Just got some pics back from the track day photographer

Oulton is often referred to as a mini Nurburgring. You can see some of the similarities....



Looking back towards Druids you can see a car in the dip - it's great fun there because you're just back on full power but the car will momentarily lose traction as it goes light



Keeping the younger generation in their place
