So this weekend sees the BTCC circus roll into Oulton Park.

Timetable and other information here:

http://www.btcc.net/calendar/oulton-park/

Qualifying is on Saturday at 15:50, that will be streamed live here:

Race action on Sunday, ITV4 live from 11:15 until 6:00, your 3 Sunday BTCC race times:

Race 1: 12:17
Race 2: 14:52
Race 3: 17:02

In between those we have races for all the usual support championships, the final Ginetta Junior race is after the last touring car action so ITV4 may not show that one (Boooo!).

Weather could play a big part, currently looking changeable for Saturday but Sunday clear, obviously early days yet:

Looking forward to watching this one, other than Donington I have missed the other rounds. It will be interesting to see if the Subarus have improved pace, this was the turning point last year. The BMWs are bound to show strongly as well going on last years results. Would like to see Josh Cook get some more good results in that Focus, punching above it's weight in the other rounds I felt.

Thinking of going next year if anyone has any tips as well smile
