I have already agreed to go sailing that weekend - if it gets cancelled/postponed than I would like to go to Castle Combe.

Did you go round the track Neil? I saw you there and also the CCC Cox. I followed a yellow Coupe round the track, I seemed to keep up with it into and through the corners but he certainly had the legs on me down the straights.

Was a cracking day and fantastic weather. My coupe will be there next year and you never know with the amount that was there yesterday we could have a club stand.

Yep morning session 10.45. What a blast, did have a spin out the esses on one lap though while playing with braking points :lol: I was thinking about going again but decided to relax enjoy the show plus a second session would had put my rear tires close to the legal limit I reckon seeing I am just touching the wear indicators after the morning session.

Here's a couple of pics. Turbocoupe exiting Quarry and West heading into Camp. Picture of West's coupe is curtesy of a friend in Cardiff Mini Club.
