Oulton Park - Cameras Banned

Speaking to Barney at B&C thursday when picking up the bike with Wev,
I mentioned my trackday at Oulton Park,
He was telling me that one of the companies who run the trackdays, IE: Hottrax, MSV etc
had banned cameras on their trackdays as someone had died and the footage turned up on youtube.
BAD I know!!
Anyone else heard of this?

 

they make you sign an indemnity form as far as i remember,unless its changed very recently ?

 

WOW how bad much the crash of been to kill on, not heared of anyone getting killed on a trackday before

 

Thats both gutting that someone died, and that camera's have been banned.

Does anyone know what company it is?

 

dunno ben,
thats y i posted this?
barney said he couldnt remember either!
Hope i can use mine

 

My mate Mike had a relatively soft accident on track (ran into a tyre wall side on), came very close to death and after 2 years is still trying to recover.
I've got some pics of him on my facebook with his Ducati 1098S a few months before his crash, he's not able to ride a bike anymore and battles with simple tasks like making himself a cuppa tea.
Just goes to show that anything can happen.

 

It is just luck whenever and where ever you fall off a bike really. You can come off at 20mph and be a mess, or you can come off at 100mph and slide gracefully to a halt and be fine.

When i came off on my trackday apparently on the CCTV the bike came very close to landing on me during the cartwheeling. On another day it could have been a lot worse.

 

I'm there on friday and takin me cam so i'll let ya know as soon as..

 

What company you going with?

 

I'll be at oulton Tuesday just watching !

 

Was with MSV but went through Wallasey Aprilia. Couldn't use my camera as it switched itself on when it was in my pocket and ran the battery out :fight: :fight: :cry: but i did see 3 other peeps with cams on helmet ( go-pro i think ) and bikes ( Oregon ) so you must be alright to use em.

 

Oulton on the 29/6 so hopefully shud be ok ith cameras
