I would love to get out on this one. It woud be my 1st UK trackday. Would it be a good event for a newbie like me never been to CC before?
AndyK I'm about an hour from Cardif how long would it take to get to CC from there?

I think it would be a good first taster. CC is set in a quiet rural location but has most facilities without being overly busy. Although the lap is relatively short compared to others, it throws most things at you with both fast and slower technical sections.

Regarding the journey from Cardiff, i think it would be about a max of an hour or so with standard traffic? Andyk can probably advise better!

Rob.

CC is about 25 30mins from Chepstow so add another 30ish from Cardiff I would think....def no longer than 1h15m.

If you are going Shakeandbake we could meet at the severn bridge and travel across together......we could pick up Glendog and Dave the other side if all are attending.....Anyone else wants to join a convoy could join in around Bristol or I now a meeting place about 5 miles from Coombe,just of the motorway jnct that we could all meet before going to the curcuit.

Thanks Guys,

Yes that sounds great Andy might be a nice photo opportunity to have a few CSL's lined up beside the Severn ala profile pic.
On aother note I was at the Motorshow in NEC in Birmingham on Saturday and was really looking forward to picking up a helmet for upcoming track days however there wasn't the choice that I would have hoped for (Arai sold out Shoei not there) There are no motorsport supply companies in my area that I know of any suggestions where I could get one?

P.S Sorry for going off topic.

There is a company at Castle Coombe circuit that sell them...think it'######## Motorsport. Willpost the web site when I get home. Buy one and collect when you go to the track day. They do mail order as well.
