Show: French Car Show 2015 - Castle Combe

quarry is ok its camp that caught me

Quarry is a bit more of a technical corner, and has an added risk of Avon Rise. Camp though, is a much faster corner and very easy to slide on. If you slide into the infield as me and you have both done, its ok. But if you get it wrong and head to the far side of the track you'll likely hit the barrier at 60mph+ and flip. Scary stuff.

1.6 8v so is still a quick engine think it's the same as the Rallye engine has the 1.1 gearbox so it's perfectly suited to Coombe

Ah right, 100bhp job. Good engine, and good fun to be had. An entire race series (stock hatch) pretty much uses this engine as its basis. 

Yeah I'm debating joining the Castle Coombe saloon championship next year. Would like to get back into racing. So excited to get the 106 on track

Go for it! 

I was toying with the idea of starting with the Classic Sports Car Club a while back, and possibly moving into Combe Saloons. I'll do it at some point, but it's a LOT of money.

I weighed it all up and decided I'd rather have a house sorted first and take a journey into the racing world later. Plus, I'm considering starting in motorcycle racing instead, much cheaper per season. 

Yeah my friend races motorbikes he says it's a lot cheaper and less hassle than car racing.
