The Spring Performance Car Action Day at Castle Combe circuit on April 24 has attracted a record entry of more than 1500 cars to make it the most spectacular ever seen at the popular Wiltshire motorsport venue.The first Action Day of the summer has switched into overdrive with over 90 owners’ clubs from all over the Midlands, South and West taking part.
The car club’s display space is fully booked with overflow space rapidly filling. Track sessions are virtually sold out and while there are still a few track passes available these are expected to be snapped up quite quickly.
The popular special “drifting” sessions for enthusiasts to demonstrate their skills of car control powering sideways are back again, while new High Performance sessions will feature cars of 200bhp and more.
There will also be the circuit’s popular “new to track” sessions for drivers who have never been on a circuit before, and as always driver behaviour will be closely monitored with “red card” rules for those who drive inconsiderately and spoil the enjoyment of others.
The owners’ clubs taking part will be featuring an A-Z of performance cars from the Astra to the Z4 and there will be a number of trade stands selling spares and accessories, while enthusiasts will enjoy a day of all-track action.Many car clubs have booked their own track sessions while there will be strong competition to win the “Car of the Show” and “Club Stand of the Show”.
