The BARC North Western Centre Rescue Unit calls Oulton Park home but the unit and crew travel the length and breadth of the country supporting motorsport events. Since it's first meeting in March 2018 the latest unit has visited Goodwood (Member's Meeting, Revival and Festival of Speed), Donington Park, Knockhill, Silverstone, Mallory Park, Cadwell Park, Bolesworth Castle, Croft, Snetterton, Anglesey and Thruxton (training).
This popular competition has now been re-instated after suspension due to Covid restrictions. For those coming to Oulton Park I hope the Juniors will enter the competition, entries to be sent to barcnw+photocomp@gmail.com.
Our sixth race meeting of the season took place at Knockhill on the 18/19 September. There were full grids in most of the races and the racing was close and competitive. We look forward to our next race meeting on the 23rd October.
The CNC Heads Championship ventured across the border to Knockhill last weekend. The circuit was used in both directions which is unique to Knockhill. It was a triple-header meeting with the races being won by the Sakers of Paul Rose and Steve Harris, and the Spire of Jon Woolfitt. The final two rounds of the Championship are at Oulton Park on 23rd October.
