Just found out there's 8 garages unused and free of charge to grab for anyone wanting one tomorrow. Typical after just booking and paying for one!

Hi all.

I have a place booked on the marshals track day for tomorrow at Oulton. Unfortunately the proverbial has hit the fan at work which means I have to be there rather than where I want to be.

I want to make sure I'm not taking someone's place if it can be utilised. I will send an email to MSV, but I'm worried it won't be picked up until 9am or later. And if possible to give my place to

If anyone is going could they please inform the staff that I can't make it,

Wishing you all a fun and safe day.

Andy Barton.

Had a great day at Oulton Park. The Clio ran faultlessly as always and put a lot of really fast laps in. Did in excess of 120 miles round the circuit.
Thanks to Jonathan Palmer and all the marshals and MSVT staff at Oulton for putting on another fabulous day!

Get yourself a Clio! Plenty of grunt and a load of fun! Really blew the cobwebs out mine yesterday! And cheap as chips to buy if you get the right car.

You did well despite the standard tyres and brakes. I'm still amazed how good my 172 has been. Now done 22 track days in it and it still doesn't burn any oil or use any coolant. Didn't touch it all day apart from nipping up the bolts on the wheels and put fuel in the tank. It's done 142,000 miles now and plenty of life left in the car
