A few of us have been along for the last few years and it's always been an excellent program of racing. The F3 cars are stunningly quick and the GT cars make a wonderful racket [8D]

Who's coming along on Race day? []

If there's enough interest I'll enquire about some reserved parking for the club.

I could be tempted - need to check if I can get yet another pass out, what with the N Wales run this Sunday and a boys beer & curry night this Friday night[][]

Bitterly cold due to a biting wind but a very entertaining day's racing at Oulton Park as normal.

The Trackspeed GT3R which came 5th in the first race (reliquished a solid 2nd when it was hit by electrical gremlins at the end of the race) and 3rd in the second race. Best sounding car on the track in my very biased opinion []

Winner of the GT cup class:

Pic of one of the F3 cars - easily the fastest cars at Oulton

Unfortunately the F3 racing was a bit procession like (bit like F1). Most entertaining racing of the day were the young bucks in Formula Ford who are not averse to going three abreast around corners and using the grass []. Young Mr Hill was racing one and being carefully watched by father Damon.
