apbuild Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Dunganick, I was at Oulton Park yesterday. During the second Touring car Race at about 3:00 pm it started drizzling towards the end of the race. When they had just finished, the heavens opened. The next race, the Porsche Carrera Cup, you could hardly see the cars on the track, 30 metres away. Didn't stay for the rest of the racing. Left oulton at 4:30 pm and got home to Oxford at around 8:00pm because the M6 was like a river and we crawled towards Birmingham at 40 mph. South of Birmingham it was bright sunshine and 30 degrees. Well weird! Still, the Boulevard Renault Clio Team that had invited me up had the win in their race so it was a result. First time I had been trackside and it was awesome!! Rob.
