Spun at Oulton once, remember when it snowed? Just before they closed the track for the snow and power failure.

Spun like a top from one side to the other but ended up in the centre of the track facing backwards just after the left hander going into Druids. Sat watching the cars coming around the bend before they saw me and could not get out.

Scary......

Druids scares me every time. Never been when it's fully dry non slippy and thus have never really been through it anything other than gingerly.

We all felt it was grippier last time there, not quite the same scary difference as you got under the trees. I remember having moments there on sighting laps, such was the differential.
New tar perhaps?

Fully dry it's awesome, as is Island Bend...and Old Hall... :D
