If it's your first t/d at Oulton Park treat the circuit with respect, not much run off in some parts. It's a great circuit though.

Christened my Tuscan at Dijon last year and couldn't believe how well she handled. Just come back from Zandvoort, another great circuit.

Took my old 350i there a few years back and then returned with a VX220 on a TVRCC track day, quicker than quite a few of the TVRs I seem to recall, and like you had a bit of a twitch but at Druids.

I've had my Tuscan just over a year, 6 track days to date, it came with Nitrons fitted and Goodyear Eagle F1s - 225/35/18 fronts and 255/35/18 rears so sits pretty low. Not sure if the front splitter or MK3 boot spoiler help but it really does grip and seems ultra steady - 125mph at Zandvoort. It's only got the early Mk I undrilled discs but Ferodo DS2500 front pads, which are about 25% better than my mates late Mk I with drilled discs, so well worth fitting those if you can.
