jonyb4 :my new run around is a TD escort, if may be on the road by then, and would certainly be cheaper to get there and back in that

At combe we have a very small stand space with a lot of cars. Those for track and a few other track-style cars. There really isn't space on the stand for a runaround which looks better in the car park.

The devon party are ni on ready now. My freind had just got his track tyres for his scoob, brother will be fitting his suspension this week, and me just waiting for some new pads.
Im well excited about it. Bit concerned about the asthetics of my car its by no means anywhere near a show car, but looking forward to the track time.

we could go karting? arrive and drive is £27 for 30 mins, £20 for 20 mins. Not sure what time they shut though, and I'd have to book - if anyone is up for that then I can make the enquiry.
any other things you might want to do?

ok, no bowling alley in Chippenham (unless you want to play the old man version ). However, Swindon is only a short hop up the M4 and we have all sorts here.

It's only 15mins up the road, but if not then I'm sure there's something to do around Chippenham. Just not bowling

7.30.
What time does the circuit open? We will more than likly meet you chaps at the venue. Can we do it that way?
We were planning on leaving here around 6.30 to get there for about 9ish. If could meet you at the track that would be better for us & i presume we will need a itcket to get in~?

Gareth you will need to be there earlier than that. You need to get sound tested, sign on and have your
Briefing before 9.45am.
