Not knowing anything about Oulton (as this was my 1st time properly driving it - previous time was years ago with a sick car, so did about 10 laps), I don't know if 1.58 is a respectable or pish lap time?
 
Scotty dont turn into a woose like some others i wont mention !!! just get it booked ... Iwas down there on Frid slippy in morning / dryabout 11 then heavy rain at 2 but the Rs is so good in the wet stayed till 4 great day cu G
 
For those who couldn't get in, or can't do, the Friday there may, and I stress may, be a chance for the Saturday as well, and for those wanting a double header!![:)]

It wasn't a "shut the door", it was the "normal line" - you take the same line as me if you look closely....its the one spot where in the briefing they said "the normal line here is to go far right and cut left for a late apex, don't be tempted to dive up the inside"...but of course, (grand)faither wasn't listening and takes his own lines ;)...to be fair, I didn't think he'd try to take me there, so wasn't looking.....made for good video though!

and yes, missing gears continually from 3rd to 4th (which in my car is the most used change) - so need to get the engine out and selector forks unbent!

If you look at my first video from earlier, you can see gordon in my rear view mirror at that point :D
 
are you two fannies talking yet - falling out over 3 quid - you couple of bawbags! [:D]
oh, and melv - for the extra day are you man enough to let non-porsche's in....or at least members of PCGB? Or if I book on for my 996 but it mysteriously has engine issues the day before, can I bring the westfield? [8D]

Actually, just looked at the footage - that was the point I was lifting off to let him past - just in my car the indicator is a wee switch that you've got to be a contortionist to work, so I tend to get the steering wheel straight, lift off, and then sometime later I indicate......[;)]
 
Think i did same time in the wet where were u !!!! HOPE IT PISSES DOWN for the 4th more entertaining p.s did u c the RMA ring report from nov "plenty cars hitting the armco" ouch !!!
 
YEA wish i only had 5cwt to pull with 200bhp and slicks to help .... thought when i seen ur l/hand move was an indication for me to pass as it turned out thats ur normal gear changing movement !!! still had a great time + the rain gave us a wee bonus cu G p.s the wet vid is best from Turbo entering cicuit
