Castle Combe Spring Acton Day 2013! 27/04/13! Tracktime & Clubstand

Featured Replies

Leaving in 15 mins ...it is COLD (3.7 degC) but the sun is out at the moment

A bright but rather cool day with a fair amount of sunshine. There will be some showers around, these most likely in Cornwall during the morning then in the east this afternoon, where they could turn heavy late on. Maximum temperature 12 °C.

  • Enjoyed today, will give myself a push to get on track next time. I should of hopefully managed to get a picture of everyone. First time shooting any moving vehicles so could do with some improvemen

  • Why do we all do these events ? For the most part it's the chance to get together with other like minded Skoda fans. And also the chance to explore the speed thrill and handling of your chosen ride. W

Not a cloud in the sky in Bath atm.

being very lazy and still in bed. see you all later.

Weather report from Combe , sunny at the moment two of us here.

Still at the Premier Inn at the moment. Saw a Mk2 Fabia vRS leaving when i looked out the window after being woken up by a Mitsubishi exhaust!! :D

A nice lot of interesting cars again. Got a bit wind chilled and have stuff to do so unfortunately missed Briskoda session @ 2pm, but certainly saw some interesting action.

Poor Megane Renaultsport, all down one side knackered! That grim looking Vauxhall Calibre kept breaking down. And those old MG boys were quick.

I see BossFox was hugging the kerbs:

But not as much as this guy:

Lucky no one drove into a tyre. The BMW chap was getting it out of control quite a bit around track.

It was fun watching the GTR take on the VX220 & Elise. The speed of the GTR out of the bends is immense. With even the back end stepping out sometimes :rofl: I could not help thinking I hope the computer does not have a 'Blue Screen of Death' when juggling where to put all that power.

P.S. Stand was impressive, certainly a lot of Skodas there. I justified taking the 106 Rallye from the B-road drive I have just taken home. I'm mentally knackered, but god it was fun, and I don't think I went over 60mph!

Oh hell when mr sox fox was after the vx and elise im sure he grew horns :D

The man can drive that thing !!!

Beleve me when i say taking them 2 on was just insane

BEST

COOMBE DAY

EVER !!!

wowzers !!!

Just got home. Pleasure meeting you all, had a fantastic day.

Thanks rich for letting me ride shotgun, made my day.

Credit to Jason for organising it and arranging for the weather to be great.

Nice one!

Just got to my hotel in Bristol. Bit of smoke coming from the front, so hopefully just brakes or elephant mod working overtime, though had smoke as i was going around as well, so need to be careful.

Great day and good to put a few more faces to names. :thumbup:

Thanks to Jason for organising, Lee for offering the use of his helmet, Karl for cutting my headlining, Bowen (sorry, didn't catch your name) for the free sticker and everyone else for making it a great day. :thumbup:

Back at the in-laws now. Good day out. Popemobile was epic on track and didn't embarrass me Loved it.

In car footage later :thumbup:

Really enjoyed that even though I had to pull out of the track session :( Great to put some faces to names and meet some new and old friends. I suspect the reason the Clio hit the Beemer was because he wasn't wearing oven gloves to grip the wheel properly :giggle: That MkI Escort drifter was bonkers!

When's the next one again :D

I'll get my video footage and pictures uploaded tomorrow or Monday. :thumbup:

I've bought a few of the trackside pics as well, so will get those scanned and uploaded.

Was there anyone taking pictures of our session and the 1/2 Brisky, 1/2 random session that took place??

I will echo what was said above, great to meet everybody and thanks to Jase for organising a great day out.

Had a good run back oop t'north too.

Sharkrider, I dipped the oil when I got home................. it was still on the stick :whew::happy:

I've got a few and some video, I'll upload some tomorrow earliest :thumbup:

Oh, and JackClapp got a load on his proper stills camera also.

Ok so everyone remembers the film Big with Tom Hanks. Well if they do a 2013 re-make Lloyd55vrs should play lead role.

Awesome day thanks Jason for organising. Cheers Pete.

Back at home as well, been back nearly an hour now. I am glad we did not have the weather I had to drive through on the way back to Dorset, really heavy rain. The roads were really bad from Shaftesbury through to Blandford, it is however sunny here now.

Thanks to Jason for organising this, good to see faces old and new and for the weather for being better than last years mud bath albeit a little on the cool side.

And thanks....

Also sorry for messing ur footage up :(

Been back a few hours now. Decent day apart from our sessions getting split up and us having to mix it with Evo's, RX7's, track spec 205's. I'll start uploading the footage to Youtube now. Apart from that it was a good day. Nice to see everyone again

Lloyd55vrs, I think you have caused me a big issue! All I got on the way home from CC was the wife saying things like;

Why don't you polish my car so it looks shiny like the red one..

Why can't I have wheels like on that red car..

Why doesn't my car have a fancy roof like that red and blue one.. Korban is also to blame

We have created a monster people, my wife is now looking at websites to bling up the Fabia, I will leave her at home next time. :wonder:

Great day today, nice too meet alot of you guys. I look forward to next time!

Next time I will insist everyone stays on the clubstand until I decide to leave! :D

Let me know when next time is and I will be there again, enjoyed it, thanks again Jase.

I bet you flew home without the engine in the boot?

I did say to the bloke in the pits that we was a skoda only session hence why we was held back at the start :)
