Oulton Park Gold Cup - August Bank Hol - Anyone going?
Discussion
I am going to be making my annual trip over to Oulton Park for the Gold Cup on August bank holiday weekend. Wondering if there are any other PH'ers going along?
I will be there with a few friends for the weekend. By all means say hello, have a beer with us and a chat. We will be camping with a silver e46 325ci, white clio 197 cup and a red accord type r.

I will be snapping away at some point too, hopefully get some good panning shots around druids corner.
Haven't shanksed it to Druids before, so i'll recce that at carfest next weekend. Thankyou. The avenue, cascades, lakeside is great for panning too, and cascades kitty litter can be a bit of a car park if you get the odd shower.
I've had less success with panning at Druids than anywhere else, but still practising. I've tried all sorts to get a classic car display spot at Carfest, unfortunately I'm not in a club that's big enough to have enough people prepared to pay the price for a club stand and they don't seem to want individual entries.
Another addition will be joining our small campsite in the shape of a black 1979 MG Midget (will be wearing its PH smiley with pride). Younger brother picked it up from Kings Lynn yesterday and enjoyed a 50mph drive all the way back to Teesside! Cheap open top motoring and hopefully it stays dry.
Certainly hoping to be there, fenby, as I've not been to this meeting before. I've been to a couple of events at Oulton Park recently (AMOC raceday and British GT championship), and will probably be watching the proceedings from usual places - Cascades, Avenue and Knickerbrook. We (MrsT66 and I) like to get there early for a big breakfast at Chequers - lovely way to start the day. Hopefully the weather will hold out as there are a few decent picnic spots, too. Oh, I'll be in the Puma, as usual!

That's nice - I had a look in my photobucket for the last couple of years and all the pans are from elsewhere, so I mustn't have caught anything worthwhile. So something to try this year.
Druids is one of my favourite spots.. Seems to separate the men from the boys! I've probably taken more pics there than anywhere else in the last couple of years since I've been snapping, so it's worth spending some time there. I don't put much on Flickr but there are few on from the BTCC last year.. DSC_3687 by nathanmercer1, on Flickr
