splinter Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Who's going To Rockingham Ovalfest on 9th 10th September? http://www.ovalfest.co.uk/ Hope anyone who is not going elsewhere can make it for this, and get as many people there as poss. If you've never been, its a fantastic venue also with loads of entertainment for the family and kids. Views are superb and the F1's will be hitting 100+, with the Hot Rods making about 115mph down the straight!! Smokin' brakes or what!! They missed an oportuntity to put the F2's out with the Superstox though, lol, and I take it they didn't like the idea of national bangers on the track Saturday events - National Hot Rods Superstox SCSA Cars Pickups Stock Rods Lightning Rods And Legends Cars Sunday events - BriSCA F1 Stockcars National Hot Rods Stock Rods Lightning Rods Legends Superstox Plus the King of the Rock Shootout Final (top drivers from each formula head-to-head) £5000 to the winner and if the racing does end up being crap, there's a new drive-in cinema, which you tune your radio into for the sound! Hopefully they wont be showing Days of Thunder! Eddie the Eagle, has offered to strap himself to the top of a car, on his skis ... to beat the 164 mph World Record for Skiing on top of a car!!, nutter!!

splinter Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Well it went as we all expected. Nothing spectacular, but I thought it was good to see none the less. Track was just too big for the F1's. Hot Rods suited it great. The last race "King of the Peak" £5000 was a complete farce when all but 2 cars either pulled off or broke down on lap one! ...They should have stuck them all in fast (reliable!) road cars, twin-engined go-karts, or legends! Incarace and Spedeworth help provide Rockingham with their biggest crowd in about 3 years, (which is sad for the place considering it cost about £50,000,000 to build!) An ok 'demonstration' but needs a purpose built short-oval!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
