Classic Action Day
Castle Combe
Saturday September 11th 2004

The final Castle Combe Action day of the year was held on September 11th, this was called the “Classic Action Day”.  The weather wasn’t too promising but it managed to stay dry until mid-day, by which time most of us had managed to get in our track runs.  Again we had a fantastic turnout from several WSCC areas:  Bath & Bristol, Cheltenham & Gloucester, Hants & Wilts and, Somerset & Dorset.  Apart from the Minis, there were considerably more Westfield’s than any other marque on display. 

It was great to see so many new faces – I trust you’ll come along to the monthly club meets also.  Now I’d got my feet under the table as AO I managed to obtain from the Combe organisers several half-price track passes.  I had a slight panic since having paid for these in advance I found myself with a few left over – however on the day there were more than enough takers for these.  Unlike the VAG and RS days, the circuit driving was much better, although most of us in the Westfield’s felt somewhat intimidated by 20+ tin tops on the circuit with us.  Best news of the day was that one of the nutter brigade (in an Escort Cosworth) known to us from previous events got black flagged & barred.
