Easter Monday 2005

**Peter Mallett** · 25 Feb 2005, 10:31 (Ref:1235457)

Promises to be a great day for classic and historic motorsport.

Thruxton plays host to the CTCRC championships go to www.csccgb.co.uk for info and down the road at Castle Combe the circuit opens its gates to the Top Hat series http://www.tophatracing.co.uk.

So who's going where and what will you be doing? Only a month from now!

Ian Sowman · 25 Feb 2005, 10:48 (Ref:1235477)

A bit daft having two similar events on the same day so close together really... but not the first time it has happened!

**Peter Mallett** · 25 Feb 2005, 11:35 (Ref:1235523)

Yeees,

So which one wilkl you be attending?

Ian Sowman · 25 Feb 2005, 11:39 (Ref:1235530)

Neither - I'm at Mallory Park! I do catch up with both series later in the year - CTCRC at Donington and Top Hat at Mallory.

**Peter Mallett** · 25 Feb 2005, 11:50 (Ref:1235541)

You might want to start something in trackside re Mallory.

Marshal · 25 Feb 2005, 12:45 (Ref:1235591)

Look forward to seeing you (and the rest of the Top Hats) at Combe

**Peter Mallett** · 25 Feb 2005, 12:51 (Ref:1235606)

Come say hello. We'll hopefully have the red/white awning to match the car by then.

I'm not there but one of my great life moments was to be on the Thruxton Easter Monday podium on my first outing in the CSCC with the Golf (don't get too excited - class winner - no other starters - sadly no photos either....) having spent my early teens on the other side of the fence in FVA F2 era Easter Monday meetings - mouldy cheese & marmite sandwiches as it often rained....

zefarelly · 25 Feb 2005, 14:43 (Ref:1235732)

TH at CC for us

the new engine fired first time only the other day, I was nearly overwhelmed . . . .by fumes ! :ROFL:

carrera · 25 Feb 2005, 19:12 (Ref:1236007)

CT. Thruxton.

**Woolley** · 25 Feb 2005, 20:03 (Ref:1236033)

Yep, I'm playing at Combe too, once I can manage to volunteer. There must be a form out there somewhere.

Yes the Easter Monday meetings could be a whole topic of their own.

Rob29 · 26 Feb 2005, 09:48 (Ref:1236447)

There has been a big meeting on Easter Monday (at least F3 or BTCC) in UK since 1949.
Is the best offering this year Historic touring cars?

Why not?

Ian Sowman · 26 Feb 2005, 09:55 (Ref:1236451)

Possibly. With Easter falling very early this year and the modren trend being for major championships to start in April...

You need to e-mail afawdington@hotmail.com and Adrian will sort you out.

Andrew Kitson · 1 Mar 2005, 07:23 (Ref:1238691)

Not one Good Friday meeting this year either? I always remember being at Snett for the Good Friday F5000 meetings then Silverstone, Brands or Thruxton F2 on the Monday. This year probably see you at CC Pete.

simon drabble · 1 Mar 2005, 11:06 (Ref:1238874)

I will be racing my Merlyn in the Cloth cap race
it is a cracking meeting and would suggest to anyone in the area to come along
Julius puts on a good meeting - althought with Easter early this year it could be b....y cold!

Chris Griffin · 1 Mar 2005, 11:57 (Ref:1238937)

Group 1 Thruxton. A chance to loosen the reigns on the SD1!

Ian Sowman · 1 Mar 2005, 12:25 (Ref:1238967)

I'll be at Combe waving my camera around.

This was a great meeting last year and I'm looking forward to it providing as much entertainment again this time around.
