I have already applied for as many places as we can have on a stand and we have filled them at the moment, as the event comes closer people may start dropping out etc so i will put you down on the reserve list in case anyone does drop out, unfortunately thats the best i can do

For those of you that are on track for the first time take a look at this
This was me @ Combe 2 years ago
I'm driving the Mercury XR2i in front of the camera car to start with, If I hadn't of missed a gear a couple of laps in he wouldn't of got past me
Gives you an idea of how the track looks

Lets hope we have similar weather to today, that would be fantastic
Some good news, and a bit of bad-
The Bad: We are only allowed 12 free admissions for the club. So its only right that the first 12 who said they would come get the free admission. Undoubtedly some people will pull out, so ill update the list on the first page as appropriate.
The Good The tickets, track passes etc are all with me, we have been allocated a pretty good place at the show too. Those of you that need to pay me £16.66 for their track sessions i will pm in a second. Our session is at 9.45am, (i presume the 9.30 slot i applied for was full) this does give people an extra 15 mins to get themselves sorted, every minute counts
Oh and anyone who fancies being a photographer for the track session (mixon?) give me a pm, as i have an idea
There is also an award for the best stand of the day, dont see why we cant give that a go, not sure what the judging criteria are though
s2steve will not be able to come now, so, snakeyjake i have a stand pass for you mate

The free tickets are for one person only, if you go to the castle combe website, its £8 for advance tickets, or pay a bit more on the gate i think.
