Olivers Mount - Scarborough - THE_Liam - 22-05-2013
I was just thinking about this today, has anyone heard of it?

I can't resist having a quick couple of laps round it when I go to Scarborough, you can just drive onto it and it's a proper hillclimb/sprint track with rumble strips, a grid, control tower and pitlane, everything! Anyone else had a quick spin round it?

Been before but only spanering for a race bike. It's more a bike circuit than cars
RE: Olivers Mount - Scarborough - 306carter - 23-05-2013
Yea a driving a car round is a bit tight no room for error. Worth a trip for a lemon top ice cream though.

Yeah that's true, I just love the hairpin at the end of the main straight before you boot it up that hill.

I've been loads of times, what a view from up there can see for miles

Shame they don't do track days...

Yeah it's a public road, so if you go mad the police turn up. Lot of dog walkers around too.

Next time I go to Scarborough I'll have a slow drive round and get my lass to film it.
RE: Olivers Mount - Scarborough - Dum-Dum - 23-05-2013
Yeah pics please Liam. Id go but scarborough is miles away, 223 to be exact and google says over 4 hours drive.
Butttttt if someone was doing a meet up there when i have the diesel in....
Olivers Mount - Scarborough - THE_Liam - 23-05-2013
To be honest, a Scarborough meet is something I've been thinking about planning for ages. They have a kind of regular meet on a Saturday night, more of a cruise really, but there are so few members up here I didn't know if there'd be much interest. Might put up a thread and see what we get interest wise, a photo of a few of us on the grid at Oliver's Mount would be epic win!
RE: Olivers Mount - Scarborough - Dum-Dum - 23-05-2013
Maybe consider after the show season is over like late august.
Olivers Mount - Scarborough - THE_Liam - 23-05-2013
That's what I was thinking. I'll do a thread tonight.
RE: Olivers Mount - Scarborough - Dum-Dum - 23-05-2013
Hero.
Olivers Mount - Scarborough - THE_Liam - 23-05-2013
