Here's some of my dads snaps from our recent outing with the Vitesse at Oulton Park.
Thought some of you might like to see.
The cars are definately more go than show cars, but that's what I love about these honest workman like track day trumpets.

My 1964 2.6 Vitesse.


Well used TR6

Hi Racingsnake .. who organises these days .. are they Triumph only or did a group of you gate-crash another day? Would love to exercise my Spitfire next year in a triumph-only track day or two.

Hi there Spitfire, it was organised by the MGOC, "Club Triumph" and the MX5 Owners club shared the day to make up numbers.

The day was organised in 20 minute sessions per club so we got 6 sessions per club.

We had a few MG's in our group to make up numbers which was fun as all the cars had roughly the same performance (except the 4.6 V8 MGB's which are rapid).

You can find our club here www.club.triumph.org.uk/forum/ they have a track day forum and a drivers championship throughout the year where you gain points for trackdays, reliability runs, rallies ect..

I have only recently joined but I did so because it seems a driver focused club rather than a "sit n show" beardy type of set up.

They do the "Round Britian Rally" (RBBR) every year and the "10 Countries Rally" too (10CR).

You can find all the info on the diffrent forums on that link though.
Like I say only just joined but they seem like a great freindly bunch of real enthusiasts.

More photos here. (Not mine so just posting the link).
