Castle Combe Finals 2018

Castle Combe TCR UK race weekend 2018
It was a very hot and sunny day… rather sticky too as I was plastered in factor 50… Was looking forward to this race weekend… BTCC (of sorts) at my local track and of course […]
Castle Combe Race 2 2018
Race 2 I hear you cry?…. what happened to race 1!!!?… well… I didn’t go… simple as that :)… it was wet, there were some crashes and Tony Hutchings had a wardrobe malfunction which resulted […]

As is tradition I am posting this a couple of weeks after the event 🙂 As you may have gathered by now my Castle Combe race posts rarely contained commentary of the day’s actual racing […]

Castle Combe Races 4 and 5

Castle Combe 2017 Race 1
First race of the year… didn’t really get many images on the day as I was making sure I was available to support Bill and train up the new guy 🙂 Anyway… race went fantastically […]

Been a little while since I have posted so here we go 🙂 Been playing with macro and the drip kit for most of the month, I also went to another race meet… so in […]

Early start (was up at 5.30am!) and off to a sunny Castle Combe for Race 2… although technically not had Race 1 yet 🙂 We were in a different paddock today which was more of […]
