Default Castle Combe this Sat - anyone going?

Anyone going along? It's Eurofest (like all the Action Days though, it features loads of cars not specific to the day including Scoobs and my Evo!)

I'm going, along with my brother in his Evo, a Phill2400 in his Saph Cos and Louppe Lotus in his Audi TT engined Elise

We're on track at 12 and 2.45. Might buy some other passes while I'm there.

I've got two track passes for sale - 12 noon and 2.45 sessions, plus an entry ticket if anyone wants them? Left overs from our club stand!

Each session is £20 (normally £30 on the day) and the entry ticket is
£10

Let me know if anyone else is going!

Yep, it's yours if you want it

That'll keep my brother happy, he was the one who over-ordered all the tickets.

I think the track time may have sold as well, had a PM about that earlier.

See you all there folks,

Si

Anyone else going?

I've now sold one set of track passes to Gary Hurn off here. 1 entry ticket is going to Alex F (Can you ring me if you see this Alex, I'm not going to be at Combe till 10:30 ish, wondering when you need the ticket - 07971 661940)

Now have a second set as my useless brother has decided to stay a bit longer on his Italy holiday

So, I have 1 more set of 12.00 and 2.45 sessions, £20 each, normally £30 on the day. Plus 1 more access pass, £10

I also know of someone selling 2 10am sessions if anyone wants them.

Brilliant day yesterday cheers for the passanger rides Dan.
Just proves who needs a quick car... little bit more would have been handy along straights just to have the edge to get passed there but none the less..... we were flying round...

Guess your car was the blue Ka with RST transplant?

Didn't think it was a 1.3 endura !

Was on track at 12:00 with you.

Yes I know my throttle stuck at the start.
