We will lay on a BBQ and soft drinks although anyone who wishes to bring anything for the BBQ is welcome!! (bring your own beer and wine for those not driving). We want visitors to bring interesting cars, from Fiat 500s to dragsters, Veteran or modern (grey porridge will be consigned to the field next door!!) – even Caterhams!! (that’s a dyslexic spelling for Westfield) I look forward to seeing a strong contingent from BPMC with a variety of cars.

For those wishing to make a weekend of it, there is some very nice en suite B&Bs available, Troy Farm being once choice. The price range is £70 to £75.00 per night for a large en suite room with a FULL English breakfast.

Each year, the Bristol Pegasus Motor Club hires Castle Combe circuit and all that comes with it so 55 cars of all shapes, sizes, ages and performance trot up for a bright and early start of 8.00am and enjoy the circuit for the day. The cars go through Scrutineering, max 100db noise (see booking information for more details), the drivers are briefed, and the tickets handed out.

£129.00 buys the driver part of that day and 4 sessions out on the track with a small group of six cars for a maximum of 5 laps a time. IF and only IF the weather is good and the drivers behave themselves, addition runs can be had pending time towards the end of the day - close at 5pm.

The main attractions of the day are that:
Drivers can go & drive their own car around a race circuit
Drivers can go & have one to one tuition from a top instructor

The day is NOT a race day; the day is a chance for drivers to enjoy their cars and to improve their driving skills in the safe environment of a controlled circuit.

The day is excellent for newcomers, with a limited number of cars on the track, there is plenty of space to go at a speed that the drivers are happy with and will not impede others on the circuit. The "Castle Combe Racing School" provides an Instructor who gives a briefing to all drivers before they go out onto the track. To help the beginners there are cones out on the circuit to show turn-in points and the apex of a corner. There is also the opportunity for some one-to-one tuition. The Instructor will take a driver out in their car and show them the lines and braking point for their car. Everyone who has done this has come back very impressed and the Instructors are really pleased when the pupils who then go out and put into practice what they have been taught.

The day takes place at Castle Combe Racing Circuit, Chippenham on a Saturday 11th August 2012.

TICKETS FOR THE 2012 EVENT ARE NOW AVAILABLE!

Although the event is organised by The Bristol Pegasus Motor Club, we do invite other motor clubs along for the day. We have a good relationship with the Mini Cooper Register who have attended the event for a number of years. We have a great deal of regulars, and also a refreshing amount of new drivers each year wishing to increase their driving skills in a controlled environment on a motor racing circuit. We have a great deal of interest in the on site driving instructor who is part of the days fees. Please note entry priority is given to BPMC members.

The event starts at 10am on Sunday 17th June 2012.
