Combe VAG Trackday 24th July
« on: 20 May 2010, 11:19 »
It's horribly expensive, there's normally a fair few nob heads on circuit but it is a brilliant fun day. We normally have a club stand to boot.

Bu##er me thats expensive. An open pit lane trackday with a lot less people booked direct with Castle Combe was only £160 last time I looked.

They must make a sh1t load of money on that day.

Tempted though, will look at the calendar later.

I think it being a Saturday doesn't help, I'm sure the circuit is more expensive to hire on weekends. Add to that the company want to make money on top of what Combe charge them etc. But yeah, still madly expensive. Never the less I'll be doing a full day.

Budgetary constraints may prevent me, but I'll have to see.

it's always an entertaining day.  I had at least one muppet spin off in front of me last year as he couldn't possibly let the skanky shed behind him past so had to go faster and faster until Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Wasn't it a MKV as well?

I nearly became the filling in a window tinting T5 van sandwich. One was not amused.
