Nearest one is in Pennsylvania. :) No, not that one, this one.

A lap of Castle Combe is 1.85 miles. So an 18 minute novice session will be ~12 laps max, so around 23 miles. Can't see why you would need to bring any extra fuel tbh.


If you're not living life on the edge, you're taking up too much room!

Two sessions and the drive down [emoji6] that and I'm in the single figures when having fun.
If there's one nearby that's ok.

More spaces have been released
I asked on fb how many on track at once and they said 20. That seems more than usual.

Did we confirm what mounts for gopro can be used on track?

I've currently got mine glued to the top front of the centre console cubby box. Will this be OK?

I'm just going to use a suction mount and see if I get pulled...

Hi James

We say “no hand held cameras” therefore suction will be fine so long as it is securely down!
