    Re: Trackday November 12th Oulton Park



    Think I've overstroked the clutch trying to get better fast shifts .Pisser is that it worked well yesterday but not today Maybe I've broken something
    It was all going so well , put a new alt on as the old bugger died yesterday as well but I had one in stock + I had just taxed it online 10 mins beforehand .......

    Time to just chill and get all the other little niggles done whilst it's on the deck over Winter for max attack next year

    Hi Jaffa

    Glad to see that your guys had a good day and nice to see at least one GT out on track, I assume you got that fluid sorted Alex? Some of our days have had 10+ R5s so I hope that there is still a following for track driving on here and we'll get the numbers back up for the next one.

    A great day had by all, glad the weather held off too which makes a change! It was nice to meet a few new RTOC faces, shame there wasn't a few more though as mentioned.....

    I had limited running in the morning due to a few issues (got the leak sorted Steve - a pipe had come off the reserve tank ) Also, I couldnt manage anymore than 3 laps without the car over heating do to the new front mounted intercooler Plenty of things to see too over the winter

    You should have said mate, I'll have happily taken you round - I was blasting around on my own all day!

    Be good to see your pictures too

    Tony, I left about 16:20ish as it was getting pretty dark and most cars had gone home by that point.

    Re: Trackday November 12th Oulton Park

    Yeah nearly everyone had gone when i got there, A few very nice cars there tho. I didnt realise it was as close as it was, we pick up a v6 customers car round the corner.

    Wish i'd got to see your 5 on track. if only it'd been done an hour earlier, i didnt get the turbo till 1.

    Re: Trackday November 12th Oulton Park

    Hi Alastair

    Brands will be on Jan 28th but it will be Indy not GP I'm afraid. There's a slight issue with the extra £20,000 (yep, 20 big ones) if we want the full circuit which makes the day pretty costly .

    Anyway, I'll be posting a thread up on here and hopefully we'll get a decent RTOC showing
