Re: Oulton Park with Trackaction-Online Nov 2nd - FREE CLUB PLACES!
I think theres a couple of guys on the drop out list allready :( booked up fast this one unfortunately.
-
Re: Oulton Park with Trackaction-Online Nov 2nd - FREE CLUB PLACES!
Hi Rob
Sorry but this one booked up a month ago and we've got 8 names on the reserves list!
These days do tend to book up early and while I wouldn't be surprised to have one or two drop out I doubt we'll be able to get you in now :crap:
-
Re: Oulton Park with Trackaction-Online Nov 2nd - FREE CLUB PLACES!
Steve, any chance of a list of runners on the day and also the reserves?
I just want to check if there is any chance of me running, otherwise I can cancel the holiday I have booked.
I was thinking of just turning up, as I know some peeps usually drop out on the day, but is a fair old drive only to turn back (or spend the day watching others having fun!).

Re: Oulton Park with Trackaction-Online Nov 2nd - FREE CLUB PLACES!
You are still second on the reserves list, tough to know if that's likely to get you in or not TBH.
We don't release full lists of drivers but there are six RTOC bookings.

Re: Oulton Park with Trackaction-Online Nov 2nd - FREE CLUB PLACES!
What a brilliant, thanks again Steve for another great track day.
The morning sessions were extremely difficult due to the greasy surface which caused one or two 'moments' shall we say :D during the afternoon things dried out and gave the track a load more grip.
Great turn out for the RTOC and nice to catch up with the crew as always.
Roll on the next one! :cool:

Re: Oulton Park with Trackaction-Online Nov 2nd - FREE CLUB PLACES!
:D Massive thanks again to Steve and the Trackaction team, had a fantastic day.
As has allready been mentioned the first session was rediculously slippery and i managed to outbrake myself after thinking id done island bend pretty well found that i couldnt quite stop for shell oils corner, i made it half way round and slid off the top and nudged the tyre wall. I snook back on track and sheepishly hid in the carpark trying to rip the broken bits of glass out of the headlight, when Steve found me and pointed out that he'd only told us two minutes ago that it was very slippy lol.... Sorry again Steve, atleast there was no need for another red flag. The medics still insisted on giving me a full examination :wasntme:
So i pulled my headlight out and pretty much didnt get off track the whole afternoon. :agree:
Everytime i started my cool down lap i'd see a nice car whizz past and think to myself.... just a few more laps then lol
Epic day and great to catch up with you all again :agree:
Thanks to Kris/dad, Luke/dad Alex willo/son/daughter Jesus&co for making it a great day :D
Extra thanks to Jesus for letting me use his camera, and Gibbo for popping along just after flying back from work :agree:

No worries Tony, you were by no means the only one that I had to remind :crap:
Glad the rest of the day went OK :cool:
