Castle combe, they got a day of sports car racing featuring Astons, Ferraris and Porsches etc... practice in morning racing from 12.30.     Just an idea......

LOL. Its a car show, which is a lot slower than cricket, and not so exciting

Cricket is not exciting.....they only bother to hit a ball farther that 25 feet once every 1/2 hour!! ;D ;D

The weather looks good, are we having a little meet up and run out some where? Could always re-run the Blaise and Downs run.

I went to Bredon Car Show, Nr. Tewkesbury. And not a cricket bat or ball in sight, only a lot of nice cars and sunshine. I went up the A38 and came back on Motorway,my car ran very smooth at 70mph. What did you do.?

I went today, great, lots of close racing.
Sadly a Aston Vantage was very badly smashed, driver taken away on a spinal board.
Lots of other "small" incidents, inc 2 x Porsche 911 smashing into Quarry corner.
Good day, but I thought £15ea a little expensive, plus they wanted £2.50 to look around the pits.
Other than that, very enjoyable.

Very last minute early morning blast with a few very quick cars - A Porshe 911 Turbo, Subaru Impreza WRX STI Prodrive, and BKCC member Roger's very quick Westfield.

Went to Monmouth, had breakfast, came back.

Roads were great on the way over, stuck behind traffic most of the way back :(

Parking up...
