MSVR Oulton Park 22 October
There will be one minutes silence to acknowledge the passing of Dan Wheldon who raced at Oulton Park in his early years. I knew him and so did several others who will be present on Saturday. The time of this acknowledgement will be given out at sign on.

Maybe we could do it out on the grid, like we have done before!

Thats what i was thinking. I think we should do it at the beginning of the meeting before all marshals go to post. All standing on the start finish straight. Or even at dinner. would just be nce to have all marshals and possibly racers stood on the start finish straight.

Awesome days racing today which was topped off with the tribute to Dan Wheldon and also Bernard Baxter of the Classic Formula Ford community was kind of eerie with nothing but the wind blowing leaves. Well done all!!

We paid our respects up at Brittens it was eerie up there, have never known Oulton Park be so quiet and it just shows how much respect there is for the loss of two greatly respected sportsmen. Must also say what a sad day today has been following the most tragic death of Marco Simoncelli. RIP #58. |

Nice pictures, it was a very touching and emotional moment, very nice to see marshals, racers and crews together to mark the passing of Dan Wheldon.
