Anyone live near Oulton Park??

[Craig]

Does anyone here live near Oulton Park, closer the better? I have a small favour to ask, really it is a small one... on Wednesday I'm meant to be on track, however with the weather been a bit, lets say, un-predictable at the moment I would be ever so grateful if someone could send me a message late Tuesday night before going to bed letting me know what the weathers like?

I don't fancy a 200 mile drive to find out the track day is cancelled, so if its heavy snow on Tuesday night I won't even bother getting up at 4am on my day off! So if you do live close, could you possibly text me on 07737 384557 or send me a PM on here as late as possible letting me know if its under 3 feet of snow!?

I'll owe you a pint!! :D

just started snowing in Leeds .... not that far from Oulton

[bromers]

Snowed then stopped, forecast to start again. IMO it's going to be hit and miss - I don't think the snow will stay long though.

Imagine druids in the snow:whistle::smokin:

off topic but I always ease off the gas round there, can it be taken flat out in a CSL ?

[Craig]

Yeh I think its hit and miss aslong as the snow holds off or doesnt come down like crazy i'll be happy!

Dont think it can be taken flat out in any road car tbh,

I brake in a straight line before it then gradually on power right through it.

Ive done a few passenger laps in less powered, full prep'd cars with "proper" drivers who have, but they didn't have the power of the CSL ...

BTW it is really snowing up here now !!!!!

Are you saying they accelerate up clay hill and continue with foot flat to the floor throughout druids?

Pretty impressive if they do.
