    Hi,

    Off to Oulton Park on Monday. Having never been there, does anyone know
    where to get a good view of the track, or what corners to look out for?

    See you there if you're going!

    Cheers

  2. The corner before the start finish straight is okay.
    From the riders point of view it's under the bridge then downhill into
    45ish degree right hander and then crack it open.

    Plenty of room to watch from, and interesting to see the different lines
    people take round corners and how they deal with it - at least it in
    during KRC - dunno whether BSB would be the same.

    Enjoy!

  3. Cascades sees off it's fair share of bikes, as does Druids if it's wet.

    Eastgate Entrance takes you opposite the pitlane. Maybe not the greatest
    view in the world but a bit more 'cosy'.

    Avoid the pit wall. Kin useless as a viewing point it is.

    Lodge, I think that is. It's quite good. I spent more time watching the
    KRC there last season than anywhere else.

    He posted a new thread announcing his win at 21.30 and then re-announced it
    in this thread at 21.33.

    No problem - I just needed the practice. :eek:)

    I think Steve is planning on a very early dart, from the same area.

    Well, if you go by my definition of very early (because I just hate
    getting out of bed) then 10am, but I have a sneaky suspicion Steve is
    planning on leaving even earlier, the heathen.

    10's fine for me, I'll see if I can persuade him. Where were you going
    to meet your mate? We normally meet at the Little Chef on the A59.

    Great, I'll tell Steve that's the plan then because he still hasn't made
    his mind up what time he wants to go!
