I am going and I am sooo looking forward to it
Oulton is my favorite track and I like the Gold Cup a lot, a suberb event.

I'm entered (I think - not had confirmation) for the GT Guards Trophy race. Its my local track, lost track of how many times I've watched it on the other side of the fence. Will be surreal being a driver!

Went for the first time last year but just for the BH Monday, not competing just watching - an amazing meeting - so have booked to stay over for both days this year. Will have to get an extra memory card (or two) for the camera judging by the number of shots I took last year! Looking forward to it.

Gary

P.s. Off topic - anyone at a loose end this weekend 7th / 8th Aug - HSCC are at Croft my local circuit (combined with the Croft Nostalgia weekend).

They have cancelled Pre War race so have pulled other cars.Its now back for Chelsea Pensioner thing at Royal Hospital 5/9 followed by Tour Britannia,CER Silverstone,Spa ,Ricard,Algarve and then back to Golf.
Next year seems its Pre 63,Tours Auto ,Britannia,Three Castles and that Austrian thing!Couple of Pre Wars so if anyone wants some expensive Historic Chevrons and Harry Harrington shout?Although think Harry is taken.
To rally is the answer!

Mike, regarding the Gold Cup have you had confirmation by email or post yet? I sent my form in a couple of weeks ago and have not heard anything - when I called them they said my form had been accepted but sounded a bit sketchy to say the least!

Simon, all I have is confirmation from Legends sent in April when put in entries for particular races with them. As you are in Guards I guess you aren't going to know until HSCC finalise their entry lists.

Good luck and hope to see you there.

The Plus 4 being a 1959 car slots in to SM Trophy since they opened it to Pre '61 sports and GT this year. Hoping that HP Tyres get a new supply of 15" L's this week otherwise will be racing on semi-slicks!

HSCC Meeting Oulton Park.

Hi Rudolf I am happy that you like Oulton Park, my circuit for the last 32years. I am a strecken posten I watched you drive by my post. It is always a great meeting with cars and drivers that race. I will be at Hockenheim for the DTM finale as a guest official a track that I also like but I prefer the old circuit as do many of my German friends. Maybe we see you next year and we can have a chat.
Tschuss Vintage.

Warm, welcome Andy!

You need to talk John out of selling it first! I'm doing my best because I want him to go back to defend the Autosport 3 hours win at Snetterton, next year!

I will be at the Gold Cup on Saturday and Sunday for the HRS in my '63 Elan (Green w/white stripes) #46. It's been a while since I raced and I don't seem to have covered many laps this season so hoping for a good result.

It doesn't rain on the Sunday at Oulton - that's reserved for bank holiday Monday!

Look forward to seeing you there.

If anyone does have a couple of spare tickets for Monday we'd be interested......but we're racing at Mallory on Sunday, so don't want to take tickets away from anyone who can use them other days......
