Any Ph'ers going to the Porsche racing up at combe on the 2nd.

I'm going with minisilverback.
Should be a good day out. Not sure what's going on up there though, a colleague paid the £12 for me, so if anyone knows what sort of race it is I would be most grateful for some knowledge

See you there.

Hmmmn. Might be a nice day out....I'll need to check with the Mrs. I half fancy popping along to the Porker track day there this Saturday too...just to see what's going on, take a few pics and so on - stuff you don't get to do when driving...

But the May races might be a pleasant day out - I'll have to check with SWMBO...

Maybe up for this if the weather is OK. Will confirm nearer the time.

Will anyone want to meet up at a nearby pub for a midday tipple before hand?

Thinking of going. Do you need a pre-booked ticket or can you just turn up?

Just turn up and pay on the gate. I'll be marshalling. I'll try and have some PH attire on me so say hello if you see me.

Daz,

We normally head over to the White Hart in Ford or The one actually in Castle Combe itself for Lunch...
Alternatively you could have a beer or two in the Tavern at lunchtime or head round to Avon rise/Tower where they have a beer stand !!
Might see you there !!

Just checked the longcast, looks like it will be a bit damp for the morning sessions but nice and bright for the afternoon which will be good.

I am on nights the night before, get home about 8 am ish, so will not be firing on all cylinders with about 2 hours sleep, but who cares.

This dozy pillock will be nowhere near a steering wheel....not a bad thing either.
