No...not quite ready, but its a nice track, especially on the full circuit, it's some years since I raced there.

Have a good day.

Cheers,

Colin

You bribed an official with a can of Red Bull, I wouldn't have let it go for less than a bottle of Scotch. (Preferably Glenmorangie) Was it fun then?





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Yup, fantastic day - if a tad wet for the final 1.5 hours...

I used two jerry cans, two 5 litre tins, and a full tank of fuel - over 80 litres today!

However, I also got in over 250 miles of track time in!



The season has started - can't wait for the next one...

hehe,i had to use my old silencer that i used to get the last car through the sva but after 5 laps it blew the baffles out,the rivets had torn through the alloy,to much backpressure i think,not really sure,when we got back to the pits the alloy casing was like tissue.had to fit the loud one back on and hope i didnt get pulled off the track for being to noisey.
brilliant day out looking forward to Anglesey

She looks at home on the track dude!

How did your tyres hold up or was this just a cruise around the track test?

Picked up a 15" super legerra in a shop on friday, Fook me are they light!!!

Good choice that man!

My car's goner feel like its wearing diving boots

no video footage sorry,at oulton they wanted me to sign my life away saying that i wouldnt put any clips on the internet or it would be a £20,000 fine
i hope to get some from angelsy in a couple of weeks,depending on if i can get an exhaust sorted out by then that will be under 105db i have a little clip but theres to much talking on it

Great picture OX, looks like you have the car set up well,looks like the "STIG" driving,they sound a bit keen at that track,with video gear,and noise,will after avoid that one,Ive never had problems with either,at silverstone or rockingham,and mine is really noisey with a race can and ITG air filterso you should be ok at these tracks.
cheers Paul
