Oulton- Fosters Circuit

[indigorallye]

I am trying to find some on-board footage of Oulton Park's Fosters circuit. I have had a good luck at YouTube without success. Also, the circuit guide on here doesn't show Fosters.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

I don't think this layout has been used for a very long time which will explain the lack of vids. All I could find were onboard laps using simulations

The difference is only 1 extra corner though and a different approach to 2 others so you can probably fill in the blanks using proper onboard footage quite easily. I think the BTCC last raced there in 1999 so you might be able to find some onboard footage from that race maybe.

Mark Hales did an instruction CD for Oulton park with all the circuit configurations on it. If you google his website you can probably still buy it.

Thanks Andy, there are some on e-bay but they are £30.
I was hoping for some freebie viewing on the old YouTube.

Have you used one of the DVD's before?
Are they worth investing in?
I have had tuition at Oulton previously, but that was the international circuit.

[andy97]

Well, nothing beats a track day with an instructor but at least this will show you the way round. I used one a while a go but can't remember now whether it was Brands or Snetterton!

Mike,

I have a copy of the Mark Hales DVD. I am also in the same two races as you on Sat.
PM me you address and I will post it to you asap, you can give it me back on Sat

Cheers

We tested on the friday and did 1 race on the saturday in the CNC Heads championship....usual first race of the season trials and tribulations!.
We managed a best 1:06.5 during the race...without full boost, a rusty driver and a very full track!

Cracking photos as ever Matt, well done.
That one of the 'Scenic Legend' is awesome. I assume you can only take that shot on the Fosters circuit?
Oh, and I will be in touch about getting hold of some piccies.
