Did i mention it was wet?
Having not seen the British GT's for a couple of years, a trip to Oulton Park on Easter Monday seemed like a good way to finsih off a long weekend. Well, at least the racing didn't disappoint...but the weather was something else...
1. Race 1 start. The United Autosports Audi R8 LMS leads the charge towards "Old Hall"...it would lead right up until the final lap when a fuel supply problem forced a retirement.

7. The weather went from bad to ridiculously bad for the start of the 2nd GT race. Somewhere out there is a Nissan GT-R...

I think i've just about dried out. I doubt if my camera gear will ever forgive me tough!
