Great to read write ups that make you smile. I'll be after you at the Castle and I've never seen the place yet.

Watch out guys, Craig is fast at Castle Combe...
We were there playing recently and he'd beat me to the holding area every time!

After race one stop start I was knackered already, but I guess everyone else was as well. I went for it as best I could but I was still messing the bit past the cafe and leaving the door wide open at the hairpin where ( sorry can’t remember your name/number ) kept doing me. I could hear Ghost right on my tail pipe every time I came to a breaking corner as well.



That was me Craig

Then you blasted back past me down the straight bits

All good fun

Good job it wasnt me driving the van fella

I reckon you pointed that camera at me on the saturday instead, hence the flip (noboby got it on cam??). Some numpty had fitted two friction plates together, hence the locking clutch

See you at sunny CC, my fillings are firmly in place now....
