Combe is a wonderful place, never had much success racing there, even blew an engine in scrutineering once not so long ago, didn't put me off the place though!, Now I'm in the Orange army I will certainly be contacting them for a bit of Marshaling next year, Anyone got any details/contacts? I can get the dates but is it one of those venues where you need to know someone or are they generally keen to see us Londoners? (such a great place I might even consider going even if the sight of a Brands badge makes them spit!!!)

Combe is by far the friendliest circuit I've been to. Sadly not managed to get there this season but hoping to do at least a couple of events in 2012.

Sorry to dig up an old thread folks but since work screwed up my watch pattern last year i ended up working alot of weekends. Next year i am determined to actually get to the training day in March and hopefully the Historica before i'm away again in April!! (Yipeeee ) My dilema is whether to purchase a set of AWS Overalls when i may actually only get the opportunity to wear them twice in the year... or just buy some Orange top & bottoms and some foulies to wear as/when.
Thoughts? |

I use a set of AWS trousers and then get orange long sleeve shirts and orange fleece, with a orange dayglow rain jacket.

The good news is Combe's posts are covered.
Unfortunately if it's sideways rain like Thruxton last week then they won't stop much. Am looking forward to the Minis. |

Whilst dropping my son off in Bristol recently I realised that Combe is sensibly do-able from home-hoping to get there next year then.
