Powertour @ Castle Combe - Sat/Sun 23/24 June
Who's making the trip to Castle Combe for the Powertour meeting in just over 2 weeks time?
I will be there as usual, providing nothing happens to my regular driver when he makes the trip to Le Mans! There doesn't appear to be too much on the calendar for that weekend, so I'm sure we'll have a good crowd. Here's the provisional timetable. All timings subject to change Saturday 23rd 0900 - Castle Combe Formula Ford Qualifying - 20 mins 0930 - Castle Combe Saloons Qualifying - 20 mins 1000 - British F3 1st Qualifying - 30 mins 1040 - British GT 1st Qualifying - 30 mins 1120 - TVR Tuscans Qualifying - 30 mins 1200 - Porsche Cup Qualifying - 20 mins 1230 - Ford Fiesta Zetecs Qualifying - 30 mins 1300 - LUNCH BREAK - 60 mins (expect queues, it may be a good idea to get lunch during the Fiesta qualifying  )1400 - British F3 2nd Qualifying - 30 mins 1445 - British GT 2nd Qualifying - 30 mins 1525 - Formula Ford Zetec Qualifying - 30 mins 1610 - RACE 1 - Castle Combe Formula Fords - 20 mins 1640 - RACE 2 - TVR Tuscans Heat 1 - 15 mins 1710 - RACE 3 - TVR Tuscans Heat 2 - 15 mins 1740 - RACE 4 - Porsche Cup Sprint Race - 15 mins Sunday 24th 0930 - Open paddock - 90 mins 1000 - Pit lane walkabout & Driver Autographs in all paddock areas, and circuit tours - 60 mins 1100 - POWERTOUR OPENING CEREMONY - Air display team, On-track stunts and the PowerTour band with grid girls. 1130 - RACE 5 - British F3 Race A - 20 mins 1200 - RACE 6 - Ford Fiesta Zetec - 20 mins 1230 - RACE 7 - Castle Combe Saloons - 20 mins (unmissable) 1315 - RACE 8 - Porsche Cup Feature Race - 20 mins 1345 - RACE 9 - Formula Ford Zetec - 20 mins 1430 - RACE 10 - TVR Tuscans Feature Race - 15 mins 1500 - Track and Air displays 1515 - F3 race startline procedure with band and grid girls 1530 - RACE 11 - British F3 Race B - 20 mins 1600 - GT race startline procedure with band and grid girls 1615 - RACE 12 - British GTs - 60 mins 1730 - Awards ceremony with champagne @ PowerTour village (in paddock) 1750 - Ends (PowerTour radio on air until 1830) |

I'll be there, its going to be a kind of after a-levels celebration, coupled with the British Superbikes at Thruxton the weekend after.
I'll only be there on raceday, however. |

Nope, sorry, I decided to give that one a miss so that I could go to see Chris Y race at Brands in the Mighty Minis - wonderful series!

Hmm, unfortunately - this clashes with the Mighty Minis, and at Brands Hatch too...
One thing is that the Mightys are on the Saturday it seems, leaving Sunday free - but we'll probably not be going to Combe - I need a day off!

That's interesting.. they only get one testing day - 21/06/01. Is that a loss?? Although the rest of the day looks pretty good..
Word is I'll be at Folly on the Sat... then Quarry In on the Sunday. That should keep me on my toes I guess.. See you there.. |

I'll hopefully be at the same locations as Dan, as for the loss of the Porsche's, couldn't we have got rid of the Fiasco's instead? Looking forward to the first laps on Sunday though
and will we set a new record fpor number of marshals at Folly?

As I said, the timetable was subject to change. The calendar on the site still includes the Porsches, and I can find no mention of their withdrawal. Craig, where did you find out about this?
The calendar, still as above, is at http://www.powertour.co.uk/events/ttable_010623.htm |

Official press release, so it *is* correct. Unless they change their mind again...
The website probably hasn't been updated as they've sacked their PR company in a bid to cut costs and in preparation of the disbanding of the package. |

OK - looking at the website results are a little behind, this would fit in with what you've said Craig. Thanks for pointing that out!

Lister Storm was down to 1m 03 sec in testing - that's lap record speed.. 160 mph at one point.
Well looking forward to it. Although gutted I can't make testing on Thursday. Schedule looks packed as well. |

) - with a bit o' luck I'll see ya there.

F3 - come on, you know you want to.. probably have the 2004 Minardi driver in the pack and also in the F Fordies - they'll be the 2005 driver..
See you there? |
