Anyone going?
Brief description of whats going on
Circuit driving shows originated at Castle Combe Circuit. For over 15 years, our Action Days have provided the opportunity for a great day out among fellow enthusiasts. The race paddock area becomes a huge exhibition site with owners clubs, trade stands, Auto Jumble area and much more, while a track pass lets you experience the challenging 1.85 mile Castle Combe Circuit.
No clubs to join, just book in advance or turn up with a car matching the theme of the day, purchase your track pass and drive.
2004 Dates:
24th April - Spring Action Day

Is there a MIG web stand then? Shall I take some money for the auto jumble? Might be some bits and pieces that I need.

I went to castle combe with my sisters boyfriend (who builds mini's) on a mini day - they had free track time I think
still £30 sounds fair enough. shame my car would be constantly off the line letting people pass

Tough shit , you either get track insurance or pay the price , but at coombe there is only 1 corner that you can cause damage , all the others have plenty of grass to slide across.
