Oulton Park Race Track

Newest Review: ... entertaining and certainly “value for money”. I can actually see myself attending similar events in the future, even if family members aren’t involved, just for the experience. For what my father and brother were there to do, they were required to turn up about thirty minutes prior to their track-time start so that they could register. We actually turned up with plenty of time to spare, so ... more

... dad and brother were initially asked (very politely) if they could come back a little bit later, since the drivers of the preceding session were still being registered. This at least gave them and the rest of the family an opportunity to have a look aroun...more

~~~ A Day At The Races ~~~ June 10th, 2007 saw the BlueMidget family descend on an unsuspecting racetrack in Cheshire. This isn’t a normal activity for the BlueMidget’s, but the reason was that for my father’s and brother’s last birthday’s we’d bought them a race day ticket, which entitled them to choose between several different options, such as rally driving, 4x4’s or a Formula Brands vehicle. It didn’t take much deciding for them to both choose the Formula Brands option, at Oulton Park, (the other possibility being Brands Hatch’).

Oulton Park is my local circuit and a circuit a visit often during the motorsport season. It is in my opinion the best circuit in the country,not facility wise but in terms of the circuit.It really has everthing from fast sweeping corners to slow tight corners it is a real drivers circuit and is a firm favourite with the drivers. Facility wise it isn`t bad but doesn`t compare with the likes of Silverstone,Brands and Donington.It has a new restaurant that has opened which is very good.Offers a wide range of food of excellent quality and a not to extorshionate price.It offers a large paddock and the garages are up to standard but not as big as the ones ...
