Default Oulton Park Trackday - 05/03/11 GT2RS, GT3RS, TVR,Focus, M3, F40.....

My first time at this track, much bigger than I thought it was. Anyway, felt depressed all day surrounded by all this exotica!! Not only do these guys have 100k+ to spend on toys they also have no issues with ringing the arse off them on track. Green eyed monster sat on my shoulder all day!!! Anyways, nice varied selection of metal, few fords flying the flag, the focus sounded very well and seemed to go well to although the engine bay looked very standard in the pits?? The M3 GTR was a nice sight but the GT2RS was simply awesome. F40 in the pits was a treat, up for sale at 345k!!! Any comments/criticsm greatfully received

The sagaris was very slow I lapped him twice in a 20 min session.

At least he tries and uses it properly

your fiesta looked very quick even when you nearly spun at knickerbrook

thanks, I enjoyed it and been honest once youve got the camera dialed in its not alot of hardwork. I set my old boys up for him and tell him not to press anything, he seems to do ok

thanks everyone for the comments
