RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - adam b - 28-03-2015 I've been sent my track time - 2x 9:30 and 1x 11:30 How the hell that works I don't know.... Oh and apparently the new tarmac will be v slippery but it's removed a lot of bumps, esp over Avon rise.

It paid for the track to be totally resurfaced though .... RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - adam b - 28-03-2015 Ah well it's got to survive somehow. I'll try to keep up on the 9:30 - it's a shed phase 1 XSi currently in sigma blue, although might be white by then. Say hello as I'm with the glos pscuk group RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Pebbles167 - 29-03-2015 As a driver the recent work wont make visibility much different. Friends have said the new surface is excellent though.. but they were in the dry. Can't imagine its much fun in the wet, still too new. Here is a random track vid from a couple of weeks back. Looks ok. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqi2tOaltzg RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Day666 - 29-03-2015 (28-03-2015, 10:34 PM)adam b Wrote: Ah well it's got to survive somehow. 100% will say hello & why don't you come round in mine for a couple of laps & give me some pointers even ?...

Your correct Chris Driving on the track the panels make no difference ... I was helping out Friday in the dry & the track boys said it's getting better as more rubber gets put down on the new Tarmac .... Everybody this Friday I spoke to said its much better than before ![]() RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - 7057sam - 29-03-2015 Can't wait guys,my times should turn up somtimes next week,i've got a solid mount for my gopro so the mashals shouldn't moan. got to put the ta's back on though as the kw are f*cked ![]() RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Day666 - 29-03-2015 (29-03-2015, 01:58 PM)7057sam Wrote: Can't wait guys,my times should turn up somtimes next week,i've got a solid mount for my gopro so the mashals shouldn't moan.

Also borrowing x2 go pros as last two Action days a car has rolled or hit the wall in front of me ? How did the KWs get damaged ? RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - 7057sam - 29-03-2015 I dunno I think over the last year they took a serous pounding,they alot of play in the strut so will put some ta's on for April.

Well I think they served me well so maybe they just passed they best.Got some potentially lined up so I shouldn't miss this RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Pebbles167 - 30-03-2015 My Rallye with KW's fitted by the previous owener could be considered 'unpleasant' to drive on potholed roads. I wouldn't go there again unless it was a track only car.

Thanks to Somone on here I've sorted out a pair of spaxxers rsx's so should be fun. Chris are you dealing with the tickets for us at action day.

Not officially no. Although because of my proximity to Combe I can probably help out with any issues people are having. To clarify, I have not yet received my tickets. "Day666" has his tickets as he, like me, lives very locally and actually went to the circuit to get them. RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - 7057sam - 30-03-2015 It's not the track time I'm too worried about as that's allways a few weeks before but the stand pass and ticket as dunno if that comming with my track time or separately from one of you guys ?? RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Pebbles167 - 30-03-2015 It should be coming from Combe, but don't sweat it. The stand pass thing is a bit of an oversight by Combe really. It gives you the opportunity to park on a 'Stand' which unless inside the paddock area doesn't really mean anything anyway as all the surrounding area's are a public car park. If you have track time you can bypass this anyway, as that is also authority for your car to gain access to the paddock area. You can just park with the club once in there. I don't have a stand pass. It should arrive in a week or so, people are starting to receive theirs.

YOUR Spot on Chris ![]() I was told by Combe ladies not to worry if I've got track time & i hope 306oc have got more than 10 that Combe said they have issued ????....or those of you not going on the track won't get on any stand ???...Maybe a oversight by Combe ??? Would be good for someone on here to check though ???....you lot turn out like Ants ![]() ![]() PS Chris my Sach Shift should be with me by next Tuesday from Kam ![]() RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - 7057sam - 30-03-2015 Good luck with the Sach shift,heard oliver's already ran into a few problems with his RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - adam b - 30-03-2015 I really like my V2s. But I do run softer springs as the car weighs less than standard.

If you havent got a ticket and the club hasnt already agreed to give you one then you will need to get one yourself. For those with club supplied tickets its only track time you need to buy. RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Niall - 31-03-2015 We SHOULD Have some spare but i can't guarantee anything until they turn up unfortunately which I expect will be in the next few weeks RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Pebbles167 - 31-03-2015 (31-03-2015, 12:18 PM)Eeyore Wrote: 306oc have a number of tickets to distribute however i believe these have already been allocated.

I have tickets, I book the years events for Combe in January. Do we know where the stand is this year? Unlikely to be in the paddock? RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Niall - 31-03-2015 I've requested the stand to be in the same place as the September action day last year. They endeavour to meet these requests but can't always so we will see!! RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Pebbles167 - 31-03-2015 Fair enough. In that case its even less reason to worry as that stand is actually situated in the public car park. RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - ginge191 - 31-03-2015 might pop along to this; picking up a Skoda VRS , but i'll have the '6. be good to see some faces !

Blimey Niall you lot have the biggest turn out of club members at FCS I've ever seen ....if quarter of you turn out for this you will still have the biggest club ![]() RE: Spring performance action day - Castle Combe - 25th April 2015 - Niall - 31-03-2015 Lol we don't have the biggest turn out of members. I think last year PEG/SWFC had the biggest stand but it's not a competition to who has the most. I'd be happy with 5 cars if they are all a decent bunch of people. Quality over quantity and all that ![]() |
