Default In car vids of my races at oulton park last weekend

In qually I ran wide at lodge and destoyed an alloy leaving me way down the grid

In race one I made a poor start with no where to go then carnage at the first 2 corners which I managed to avoid somehow!
still had the missfire which slowed me down a lot, nearly went off on the second last lap and did spin on the last lap at the chicaine, came home 16th and 4th in class

Race 2 another crap start got boxed in but i had fixed the missfire and the car was going very well, a car went off and caused the safety car to come out for 3 laps leaving us with just a 1 lap race to the flag I made up 1 place with a late lunge at the knickerbrook chicaine (scene of my spin earlier lol) came home 15th and 4th in class

croft in 3 weeks should be good with the car now fixed and it is my home circuit..

After a crap qually to be honest I didn't like it I found it very hard to get round quickly
After driving the track more during the races I grew to like it more but you deffo need strong brakes for the chicaines and balls of steal through Druids!!
Thought the facilities and layout were fantastic aswell

Druids, especially in the damp, really does seperate the men from the boys. When ever I go to a trackday its the first place I go to take pictures every time.

Iv done so many laps as a passenger around Oulton but never had the chance to drive it yet.

druids can be deadly in the damp under the trees. Ive done a few trackdays in the 205 at oulton but not in the cossy... yet.
only place we managed to spin the 205 was on the exit of lodge by getting too wide onto the plastic grass mesh stuff, nearly ended up in the barrier on the inside
just a bit of constructive critisism, from the first video you seem to enter the corner from the centre of the track, your lines did seem to improve as the vid went on though
