Oulton Park Mini Festival - July 12th

Post by Pete »

I'm organising a gathering of cars for the Outlon Park Mini Festival on Saturday July 12th. Let me know if you fancy it. If you've not been to Oulton before give it a try as it's one of the best and most scenic circuits in the country with great access all round the circuit and a new bridge in place to access both new grandstands at Lodge and Old Hall. I'll have a nice plot to put cars on and some very interesting cars will come to this that rarely venture elsewhere.

Two free entry tickets for every Mini entered by the way folks, very few big events offer freebies at all anymore.

Free tickets you say? Are they for the whole weekend? I might be interested, if you'd be interested in displaying my car?

The event is a single day on a Saturday as usual at Oulton and yes I'll put you on my list. I think it'll be a really good event.

I think they have changed the Mini Festival into two separate one day events at Oulton and Brands, no going to go this year as there's to many other things going on :roll:

Racing at Oulton is usually/always a one day event, they don't race on Sunday. It's great that this is being tried up here in the frozen north for the first time ever, and I know it's my "local" but I have to say it's a far better circuit in every way, beautiful place to visit and a much more technical circuit. And FREE ! There may be an opportunity to camp but I'll have to check.

Looks like being a good event. We may be able to get the original GRX 309D there.
