Judging from the focus positioning I'm presuming that was someone from Ralliart.com?

I must admit the 5 laps of Oulton Park in a BMW followed by 1 lap ( properly ) driven by the instructor followed by 10 laps in a single seater was the best fun I ever had without taking my clothes off..........53rd birthday many moons ago.

Emotionally speaking, nothing will be better than my first solo flight. I was sixteen, and it still feels like it was yesterday.

I was 18 and got my first motorcycle, not flying as such, but I still ride at 51.

My job as a Park Ranger means the local council give me a bike and all the kit!

Nope, it was the mother of someone else doing the course.
In fact, there was only one guy went home with decent photos..I took them

I rolled a Mini at Oulton Park while taking part in a sprint. It was alright though, it only needed a new roof and fibre glass front

To be honest, I backed off a little as we'd been told we had to pay for any damage to the car. They've had a few incidents of people not heeding the advice and have gone from 4 cars to 1 this year

The thought of paying out £20000 for a new car if I rolled it into a tree certainly slowed me down a bit!

Lucky guy - I got blue flagged for trying to overtake some wimp 28 year old who was playing at being a race driver and also lectured for doing over 100 mph on the track ??????? I`d driven at over 90 on the way down to Oulton Park in my 320i beamer auto and wasn`t going to miss the chance of a burn up on the track.As for the wimp - well he did apologise afterwards for getting in my way when I explained the facts of life to him................................ NEVER get in the way of a Masterchef when he is concentrating - lol
