Oulton Park have come to their senses about decent supercar experience days
Im made up at last that the racing school that run the likes of three sisters (too small a track) are starting track days in lambos/ferraris etc in may to july 2013.
For ages theyve been up against much competition in the market just because, in my view, they had naff cars to drive like the RCZ or BMW M3,poor considering the cars out there to drive on their wonderful track.Its about time too. Ive been to a lot but rate EVERYMAN in leics the best as you dont wear helmets and have a great choice of cars etc.....although they get a lot of stick/complaints on the net,i found them tip top. Ive travelled all over uk to drive lovely cars but its a pain,im glad the uncatered for north west will host some decent lambo days..... |

You only get six laps anyway per car,i always hated those helmets as you cant hear the ARDS guys advice through them anyway.....and the silly hair net.
Its not comp' racing and you be lucky to get to 100 mph on a straight before the brake board-slow to turn in. Must be their safety record too.Mind you i am talking about EVERYMAN RACING and not the guys who are doing the oulton park days in the summer. Ive done track days at elvington,stafford (rubbish and small),wigan,prestwold hall leics' and leics is the best in my view. Put into Youtube " everyman racing lamborghini or nissan GTR/ferrari 430 etc" and have a watch. |

Just spotted this so thought I'd chip in. The Racing School also run at Donington, Rockingham, Mallory and Brands Hatch. Definitely helmets are required as you will def reach speeds of well over 100mph. 130mph not unknown at Donington and Mallory.
Rockinghams not really got s straight long enough although you'll be close to 120mph in single seaters on the Oval. Malcolm |
