From looking at other YouTube vids, that corner seems a bastard for catching drivers out. A couple of those Evo's sound savage. The white 10 looks nippy.

I prefer to drive a RWD or FWD round a corner all day long tbh as my daily 4x4 is a bitch in the wet and never know when the fuck it's going to let go.

No oil, the corner is well known for catching people out but in the wet it is bad.

But you can tell it's only a mess about on track day for those boys as you do not see one of them turn into a spin untill a few minutes in and then they also braked, not very experianced drivers that day by the looks of it?

If it was me I'd rather spin there than try to correct it and end up heading for the barriers.

Castle Combe is like ice when it is wet, quite a contrast to Llandow which has more grip in the wet than a dry public road.

Castle Combe is really dangerous when it is wet and there is an action day as people don't drive to the conditions - I usually wimp out and get a refund on my sessions as there is always an accident in every other session

If it's me, I wouldn't go on there in the wet as it's rediculously hard to drive around there with pace, no matter if you turn in or not lol

Worse thing about that bend is that it's fast coming up to it and hard to judge braking distance.

Looks like a nasty corner

I saw the the link below on another site and it looks like the same corner...

Nice watching a MGB kick some ass on the track with a V8 sound track though

evo's looked to be struggling with all the oil the old fords had laid down

got to be a huge gutter when your day of fun turns into bent metal, especially if they haven't got cover
