Yep. Great day out. Just make sure you've got clothing for all weathers. Trek around a bit to check out all the decent viewing areas.
BTCC is great value imo.

I like viewing down the hill to Cascades. Usually some action there especially in Ginetta Juniors and Clio's.
Druids corner is good too as you feel quite close to the track. Depends how busy it is though.

go to the events where there aint many pit garages makes it so much better when they set up the awnings in paddocks etc gets you soo much closer to the action/teams cars etc cracking day out as allready said pack for all weathers and wear something comfy,

BTCC is always good. Me and a mate make a point of hitting 2/3 a season (although never Oulton yet).
Good to watch live.
