I can get free tickets (two per car) for anyone attending the Masters race day at Oulton Park this Saturday 17th March for anyone taking a Mini or other classic car. Classics will be parked in a special area and will be allowed a couple of laps of the track at lunch. Alreet for nowt eh ?
PM me with reg and car type please.
Cheers
Pete

Ale festival on a Friday night ? That's was just called a 'Friday night' when I was your age !
See you around nine then, I'll get the coffees.

Will be intersesting to see what entry they get at Oulton - 1 of only three Masters events in the UK this year. There's usually a good smattering of Mini's.

Anglias are running 25 kg less weight this year. Be interesting to see how much difference it will make

Can't make it Sunday, hence going to Oulton. I wish they'd move Mother's Day to a week day.

I guess its a question of how dramatically that change their power to weight ratio and how much XMAS pud their drivers ate over the festive season !!!

Yorkie Bar.
Stop living in 1950s Yorkshire!
Mothers' Day, Fathers' Day, Best Friends' Day, Skool Dinner Ladys' Day have all been elevated to Royal Bank Holiday status, if you hadn't noticed!
Back in the day I was selected to trial for a International U18 rugby side that weekend but had been told in no uncertain terms that I must forgo this opportunity of a lifetime - it never came again
It's just the way it is. As the thespian, Tom Conti once said, "Always give in. It's worth it in the long run!"

Hyacinths ?!! I'm pretty sure where I'd be wearing the basket if I tried that one !
I'll report back from Oulton anyway, hope the weather hold up though I doubt you'll be hoping the same ! Is Shifty out this weekend in his lovely new projectile I wonder ?

Unfortunate clash with Donington though isn't it, bleedin stupid really.
