I doubt I can come to this anymore. I was only coming to say hello to everyone, but I enjoy meeting like minded people! I'm at uni between 9-3 so I miss the majority of the fun. If I can get back at a good time then I will definately come down. If not then I appologise!

Where was everyone today - only saw and spoke to Jonty. Saw tail happy on track and that was it.

Was a VERY VERY slippy track all day long.

I turned up at 4PM Robin, it was the quickest I could have got there. I'm pretty sure Jonty will confirm that it was a slippy track! Unlucky fella!

Sorry I didn't turn up mate, I'm still using a crutch to support me walking at the moment so probably best not getting thrown around

What happened to Jonty's car?

I was there..... passengering with tailhappy.
Unfortunately, Jonty's car was classic for many RWD cars that start to increase the pace as the track starts to dry. On damp days, there's always a few dings. Druids again takes it's next victim...


There were also other casualties. This 2002 blew its diff after a stint in the morning...


And a 205 Rallye came unstuck elsewhere, and a Westfield snapped his prop on the start finish straight early afternoon.

All in all a good day, sorry about Jontys car though.

Check this cheeky little bugger out.... It was particularly fast! Really sorted little thing, playful in the damp and took some muscling for tailhappy to get past in the Accord Type R. Driver of this was fantastic and loving it.. Have a look on YouTube for Oulton park 8th Nov, you'll see/hear it fly past.



Even had the bloody S switchgear, and gearbox/handbrake.
