Oulton Park Gold Cup 2011

Post by Pete »

Any members of the board racing at Oulton in the Gold Cup August 28/29th ? Which day is the saloon race anyone know ?

HRCR are doing the rally stage again this year and there may be a couple of board members on that aswell. I'll be wearing my official MCR undercrackers as we will have a presence there if anyone's interested, free tickets folks !

You can have a go Tom but I would imagine you'll end up 'talking to the hand' on the gate. :lol:

how do you enter and how much is it? Do you have to be a member of anything clubwise?

Not sure how long the race is. Last year it was 45mins, this year I think it's much shorter. Normally you can enter one HSCC meeting with day membership of £10 each year

Here's the entry details . Last year they did say that fully paid up members would get priority over day members as it's one of their most popular events but I got in any way
