    Im going to Trax the day after, anyone else going up/coming down ?

    I was going to take the R5 but I think I will be going to Silverstone in the Clio now as we don't have a stand pass etc.

    well had a good day today at Combe

    The old cup was not so good however . Firstly i failed the noise test, big thanks to Sukh for letting me use his exhaust. Yes we did swap them over in the paddock

    Did the first session spon on, car went really well. Thought id cracked it

    Untill i came back into the paddock when i could hear the engine, it was knocking its guts out, big end stylee. It did this before when i stripped the engine it was all brand new so i put it back together and now its just started knocking again

    So, i thought sod it, il do my last session, the engine was ok...But the missfire that i had a Mallory returned with anger !

    So, got afew things to sort before Oulton Park in Nov

    Top day though

    Don't worry too much about it, Castle Combe are VERY strict about their noise levels. They have a lot of grief off their local council, so they have to be.

    Airfield's are very strict as well, but most circuits are a bit better. My coupe's had no problems at Brands Hatch, Rockingham, Donington, Cadwell Park, Snetterton, or Mallory Park. In fact, out of those, the only one that noise testing was even mentioned was Donington, which do a drive-by test.

    Kris, sorry to hear about your cars problems . I'm sure you'll soon get everything sorted though

    Top day chaps. Kris spent most of it on his back. Get that engine sorted mate. Well done to Spooky for the loan of the sidey. And throwing the gloves in Kris's face when he was stressing.

    great day guys , nice to see you all
    my first experience on the combe ,its one hell of a fast track indeed
    with plenty of nutters on action days

    i loved every minute on the track ,shame it was short and i ended up
    with cooling difficulties ( seen 112 degrees celcius on my gauge at one point )
    but still made the 70 mile drive home allright .

    many thanks to sy for organising this
