CLASSIC FF1600 Oulton Park 14th JULY

[dulon]

Just thought i'd remind you that you've only got a couple of weeks before the Oulton Park meeting.
Can anyone confirm what the position is with the garages ? Just wondering about wallpaper at this meeting rather than the paddock sign as the headboard for my bed !

[martyn_mcg]

so you have decided to do it then? Are we even getting garages? i hope we get garages!

[Dave Brand]

According to the timetable on BARC's website the pit garages have been allocated to the Classic FF2000's.

[dulon]

Are there any FF2000's that are looking for a nightwatchman ?

Can't resist the call of being on a track, especially in the Elden it puts a big on my face driving that.

Anyone got any ideas what ratios I should be running as I can only find ratios for Fosters and full circuit. Im on ACB10s.

Cheers

a fun weekend, callum did fantastic, the paddock was fairly lively and the weather made things very intresting!
a bit of a mechanical problem in qualy meant that from a personal point of veiw it was a terrible start to the day after i found out i qualified last, but come the race its self and with the car sorted i had great fun making my way through several cars and also learned a lot about driving in the wet!

Roll on donington..

Martyn is the dark horse in the championship,he'll be the one to watch out for in the future, after starting from the back of the grid due to his throttle linkage disentegrating he made good progress in difficult conditions.Where would he have been if he'd started where he finished?
He looked to me like he's learning fast and I really believe he will be a force to be reckoned with in 2013.

yes excellent drive in difficult conditions but a visiting Callum Grant won from pole . Heres to the HSCC title glad to know we helped .

On the 18-19 of August you can run wild with your Formula ford Classics have a two day meeting at Donington ,the BRSCC have a pre and post 90 race on the 18th at Oulton and James Beckett has a race on the Brands Grand Prix circuit on the 19th . So if the pre 90 Oulton boys want a run out on the Sunday come and join us and the post 90s can go to Brands . Just so the HSCC boys dont feel left out they have Croft and then Oulton for the Gold Cup in the next few weeks but your welcome to join us at Donington .
