What an excellent track choice for the TVR/Lotus Challenge  A real drivers circuit with some corners reminiscent of Goodwood, and again a new track for me to learn. Initial setups are giving me low 1:07's with race fuel in the TVR but am hoping I can shed 0.5 or more somewhere along the way. |

For those new to Castle Combe here is an instructional video on how to take Quarry Corner correctly....  Lotus Cortina #46 is a Dan Cox, mate of mine and he has this corner nailed in this car, but watch out for the Austin A40 (#45) towards the rear of the field. That is his dad and he is in his 70's!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJfYO4qKAso |

Hi folks, just a quicky, recon heart passed all tests now and signed off by hospital specialist - even have 10 years warranty on the work carried out.  Hope to see y'all on the track - firing on all cylinders.  Glad to hear the great news Bill; must be a relief. Cheers, Erling |

Been looking at Raceroom. Sorted out the basics in the week prior to my IoW Tour and been buying cars and tracks and spent time going round Brands Indy in an assortment of cars. Looks and goes very good. |

My best times in either car are in the 1:08's with the Lotus being a little quicker. Tough track if you don't hit a perfect line at the key turns.

Nicely balanced car set, Tony I'm about half a second quicker in the TVR, but it's easier to string a good lap together in the Lotus. Should be fun. |
