Default Who's on track at Combe?

Who's hoping to go round track at Combe in a couple weeks?

It would be good to see some quick cars going round!

id love to come down to Combe with the new track car this year, would be more suited to that track than the Fiesta last year, but Im working

I enjoyed the track last year, and the wet was a good equaliser for me, I won best Track car trophy too, would have loved to have defended my title
