Just to let you know of a slight change of plan to the event we are running at Oulton on Saturday (14th Feb).

We will be doing the Introductory course in the morning as normal, but we are now also running an open pitlane trackday in the afternoon for £65. You can book on 01953 888789

How much for a second driver?

Today could work out expensive, I've already booked Brands GP in May with you this morning.

I called hazel at track action about this event this morning .. have booked provisionally with her, she was on the hands free en route to silverstone!! (busy lady). Hopefully with only 12 places left i won't be disappointed..

incidently, i was under the impression it was 1pm till darkness (around 5pm?)from track action people .. but on ur website it says 1-3.30 pm .. can u clarify which it is? .. i wouldn't want to drive all the way to oulton (a pig to get to from here in derbyshire) for only 2.5 hours of track time less stoppages and rest periods .. just wanting clarity on that.
best wishes.

It will run longer than 3:30 as long as conditions allow. 3:30 is the earliest we'll end. So yes, we will run until it starts getting dark.

LOL .. nice drive, however trying to fit 4 spare wheels, two jerry cans and tool kit into a V8S and then doing battle with those yumpy roads is a test for anyone!!

Rang Hayley this morning. Looks like I am packing the slicks into the Cerbera and coming out for a play.

However since it is up for sale the Cerbera is no longer registered as B19 TOY.

Yeah, thats part of the appeal I reckon, its a technical circuit with not a lot of room for error etc. Probably why I like going to the 'Ring

My brakes aren't the best anyway, its a Sunny afterall, so I won't be making any last minute outbraking attempts on people, add to that the weathers not looking too hot for Saturday either and I doubt I'll be threatening the lap record somehow.

Still, it beats worrying about Valentines day

Hey you guys .. great to meet som may PHers there .. evo barry, me ol' mate dave haslam, quinny and a couple of other TVRs .. one chim and one griff.

HAd a storming day, a few stoppages for the usual race cars breaking and locaterfields outbraking themselves and understeering off into the gravel

Once again the S was a lovely companion on track, was initially regretting fitting the 650/450 springs but needn't have worried - the car was great if a little twitchy.

Lodge claimed a couple of victims on the day, but no casualties from what I gather .. all in all a great time

big thanks to EVO, On Track and Track Action.
