    Spring Performance Car Action Day, Castle Combe, Saturday 26th April.

    Last years event wasn't very well attended owing to only having 4 weeks to organise it, so this year everyone's got plenty of notice. It's a great event, sort of a mini Trax if you like, with plenty of track action (track time is available @£30 if booked before 26/2. Entrance is free for up to 10 cars, then £12 a car after that, though the cost will be shared by everyone attending e.g. if 15 cars attend then it'll cost £60, shared between 15 would be £4 each. Passengers over £17 are 12 in advance, and £15 on the day, under 17s go free. The booking form has to be in at the end of the month, so get your names down A.S.A.P.
    Details:

    Attendees:

    2. Relfski

    Yeah, Blackdog was out on track, you'll have to blame Rachel for the camera work, as I was driving.

    It's the same price as Trax. T5D5 have a day at Castle Combe later in the year, that's £160.

    trax is a massive event mate at silverstone, so is worth it,
    look at this for example, full open pit lane, the whole day for £99

    But that's Cadwell Park, how many car shows do they have there? Also the track sessions were over crowded at Trax last year, at Combe, there's a bit more room to move.

    Cheeky git, I managed loads, just couldn't quite get past the Focus RS, saw some good flames shooting out of its exhausts though.
