I was just thinking about this today, has anyone heard of it?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver's_Mount

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?

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

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

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!
