Cheers Dan, just go and ask Dave what a good lap time round Combe is in reply to your other thread! There is a few pics of him in the Gallery.

I saw him this morning unloading the camper, but the baby was crying and i was late for work, so never managed a chat. I'll pop in the garage and see him on thursday. do you know how he got on? How did your mates get on with their first outing?

 

[Rich]

Not sure where he finished Dan.

My two mates in the 106s - one finished 19th/6th in class - fastest lap was 1:27.475 . The other finished 26th out of 29/last in class - fastest was 1:35.571.

The Classic race was superb to watch.

Bloody hell! bit of a difference in times! lol

One has done lots of Karting and has lot more track experience, for the other it was a first attempt at competitive motorsport so it was a very good attempt.

Nice. What lens did you use for these?

 

[Rich]

Mostly a Canon 300mm f4L Prime.

There always seems to be things going on at the combe. its really not far from me either. Can anyone just go and watch on days like this? What does it cost?

 

[Rich]

Yeah anyone can go along.

Was £12 to get in and then £2.50 to get in the paddock.
