You made that up Ken!
Or someone made it up! Why don't they go the whole hog and get rid of the name "OULTON PARK" and call it after some other drivers? Eg. (Based on NWFF Drivers) The Mullins Race Activity centre or the Loebell Racing School of Excellence or the Sanders Centre for.......er......falling off! |

From the press release:
"Carl Fogarty's racing achievements will be honoured at a special ceremony at Oulton Park this weekend. The main office and administration building at the Cheshire circuit is to be renamed the Fogarty Moss Centre, also celebrating the success of four-wheel hero Stirling Moss." "MotorSport Vision Chief Executive Jonathan Palmer explained his reasons for renaming the building: "I feel strongly that this important building at Oulton Park should be associated with a leading rider and driver for whom the circuit was particularly significant."" |

It had signs up at the Superbikes yesterday and the special ceremony was also yesterday according to the commentators. I think you got in a bit too late Mark - but thanks for the thought!

The renaming ceremony was held yesterday afternoon - between the pit walk and the first race.

No chance of any corner or bend anywhere in the country being changed to "Gerry's Drift"? Anywhere were he had to change direction was significant!
Just a thought! |
