Una persona no debe estar tres semanas sin competir a estas alturas de la temporada, así que, para mantener la forma, hacemos una sin puntos?
A driver should not go three weeks without racing at this point in the season, so we propose a non-championship race to keep fit.

[Mezcua]

Realmente no se porque propusimos un lapso de 3 semanas
I really don't know why we left this 3 weeks gap

Espero que aun no hayais enviado todo el material y enseres hacia Mexico porque mi querido amigo Xuggy ha propuesto que pasemos fuera de campeonato un buen rato en pista en Oulton ... stop
I hope you have not yet sent all your gear and equipment to Mexico because my dear friend Xuggy has proposed that we spend some time out of the championship on the track at Oulton .... stop

Tras una semana de descanso y con otra sin saber que hacer mejor compartir pista en Oulton. Eso será el próximo 9 de Diciembre ... entrenos el 8 ... stop
After a week of rest and with another week without knowing what to do, we'd better share the track in Oulton. That will be next December 9th ... practice on the 8th ... stop

Esta vez para la ocasión se exige traer un buen chiste que contar, y venir a la reunión de pilotos pulcros y recien duchados que la otra vez pusimos el bar lleno de grasa ... stop
This time for the occasion it is required to bring a good joke to tell, and to come to the drivers meeting freshly showered and tidy because last time we put the bar full of grease ... stop

Prefiero pagar las rondas extra de pintas que os vais a tomar que tener que solventar los desmanes de limpieza que solemos ocasionar ... stop
I'd rather pay for the extra rounds of pints you're going to drink than have to deal with the cleaning mess we tend to cause ... stop

Ah y también dice Xuggy que si no teneis nada mas a mano y el chiste es malo pues que vale, que os hemos avisado con poco tiempo ... stop
Oh and Xuggy also says that if you don't have anything else to hand and the joke is bad then fine, we have given you short notice ... stop

Ya sabéis Oulton 1966 ... poned en marcha vuestra máquina del tiempo .. stop
You know Oulton 1966 ... start up your time machine ... stop

Ahora que pienso ... a Oulton lo llaman "The Cheshire track" ... David! si vamos a tu casa ... ¿no serás tú quién tiene que pagar las birras? ... stop
Come to think of it ... Oulton is called "The Cheshire track" ... David! if we go to your place... won't you be the one who has to pay for the beers? ... stop

[Doni Yourth]

My records show that I've used the following GP66 cars at Oulton Park...

Brabham BT19
Lotus 33/BRM
Lotus 33/Coventry-Climax
Eagle T1F/Coventry-Climax

As ever, I'm keen to try a car not previously used. Looking hard at the Dino Ferrari. A few laps to pin down the gearing seems to have the baby Ferrari in the ballpark for lap times.

Correct, Oulton Park is the Cheshire track and I live not so many miles away. I am happy to pay for the beers on this occasion as I understand virtual beers are quite cheap!

(PS yes my name is Cheshire but I only moved here quite recently! I suspect that back in history my family originated from here but were we "The Princes of Cheshire" or "The Thieves of Cheshire"? )

David

Según como vuelta a tus origenes ... al menos por el nombre
In a way back to your roots ... at least related to your name

¿Principes o ladrones? ... en la familia de mi padre sostienen que hay un antepasado corsario cosa que no se porque no le hacia ninguna gracia a mi madre
Princes or thieves? ... in my father's family they claim that there is a corsair ancestor, which I don't know why my mother didn't like it

Fue hace 51 años, concretamente el sábado 17 de septiembre de 1966. Todavía se podían ver coches de Fórmula 1 compitiendo en carreras que no eran del campeonato, algunas de las cuales tenían lugar en primavera y ofrecían valiosas oportunidades para probar los coches de la nueva temporada, pero una de las mejores, la Golden Cup de Oulton Park, organizada entonces por el Mid-Cheshire Motor Racing Club, solía celebrarse en otoño ...

It was 51 years ago – Saturday 17th September 1966 to be precise. Grand Prix Formula 1 cars could still be seen competing in non-championship races, a cluster of which took place in spring providing valuable testing opportunities for the new season’s cars but one of the best, the Oulton Park Gold Cup, then organised by the Mid-Cheshire Motor Racing Club, usually held in the autumn ...
