Bananaman Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Has anybody got any experience of Track Action Webpage I want to do a Trackday at Oulton Park & they seem to be the only people doing Oulton? Preferably I'd like to go in Late July/August, however all they seem to have is June 10th.(if this is all thats available I'll do it but i'd rather go later in the year) any ideas or experience of the above?

Bananaman Posted April 25, 2003 Author Share Posted April 25, 2003 I think a fair few Scoobies have used them Thats kinda what i thought , don't know if i want to be diceing with a load of Scoobies & Evo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregh Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 I think you'd be more overtaking them than dicing but why not ask what kind of cars they get on their days? regards, greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick M Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 Thats kinda what i thought , don't know if i want to be diceing with a load of Scoobies & Evo's Things to bear in mind about Scooby and Evo owners : 1. They may have mirrors fitted to the car, but they have no idea what they're for... 2. Briefings are for "other people"... 2. They're dog slow round corners and then clog it down the straight, thereby p******** off the se7en driver behind who would be much quicker than them of only they'd get the f**k out of the way !!

Nick M Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 I think you'd be more overtaking them than dicing Fraid not... They seem to think that it's their job not to let peasants in kit cars past. Overtaking them is nigh on impossible unless you have some serious ooomph. And then you'll get them trying to out-brake you into the corner. Either that or you'll get over-taken by other TNBs who *do* have the grunt down the straights... [/voice of experience] Keep checking the BookaTrack calendar for Oulton dates. There should be some there later this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananaman Posted April 25, 2003 Author Share Posted April 25, 2003 Nick Thats exactly what i've found for some scoobie/evo drives Just found one for the 24th June with EasyTrack & there seem to be not tooooo many Evo's etc....... Think I'll track this one & change my provisional Donington to Late July/Aug. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregh Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 guess it depends on the circuit, and I reckon Oulton has too many fast bits where they can stick their foot down Greg (ex Scooby owner who did listen at trackdays and used my mirrors, and let many a westi/c******m past!!!

Bananaman Posted April 25, 2003 Author Share Posted April 25, 2003 Greg (ex Scooby owner who did listen at trackdays and used my mirrors, and let many a westi/c******m past!!! Theres always one isn't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregh Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 oh and I'd fancy a day there in my Westie, nanas, but why don't you also come to Anglesy on the 13th June - see my thread in events. greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick M Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 The exception that proves the rule ?? BTW Greg, I was being deliberately inflamatory with my posts above Knowing full well that there are a good few ex-Scooby owners on here who might be tempted to take the bait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
