Audi Driver International 2011 Saturday October 8th Castle Combe circuit

This grey haired bespectacled old git looking to attend for first time being new to this Audiness lark. Leaving Worthing area at ungodly hour via M27/ A34 / M4 to partake of leisurely brekky nosebag at Leigh Delamere Services by 7.30am. Fancy arriving at venue early-ish to avoid having to Q for too long. Plan B is to route cross country via Andover / Devizes then somewhere in Chippenham for brekky.
Check out private plated Pearl Black Cab. red callipers, er probably bumbling along if nice morning meaning hood can be down ( unless p....g down ).
Guess not being a club member or anything I will get thrown into the public car park.
Safe driving folks

I live around the Chippenham/Melksham area, so could meet up on route if you wanted.
 
great weather for preppin my car..... NOT! typical UK! weather report said dry sunny for today!!
 
Hi gyus,

Really gutted to say but my missus announced to me this morning that she will need the car for tomorrow as friend of her stitched her up and there is no one to take her to work now so it means I wont be able to make it unfortunately. Sorry for that chaps.:sob:
 
:sob::bye:

We will miss u matt :( hard times fella we will catch up soon again tho!

so boys its straight motorway drive to castle combe then!
 
That's too bad Matt, next time.

Those who are still coming I've got all of your numbers so I'll text you this evening to confirm times etc as my access to the internet is going to be limited today.
 
Cheers. Expect to be at LD Services as per my post. Maybe see you in car park or cafe. Look out for the dark blue John Mitchell Racing 'T' shirt and Zimmer frame.!!!!

:laugh:

I was proper nervous driving back from the carwash earlier. Almost went into the back of someone cos I was too busy looking up at the grey clouds praying it wouldn't rain.

My car is staying in the garage until tomorrow morning. Any driving I've gotta do now is being done in my girlfriend's Ka!
 
like a boss! i left work a bit early about 10 mins lol Got the equipment out washed the car all done! Managed to give it a quick hit with some CG Blacklight and Hybrid V7 as i was working with this all in the dark....I guarantee i missed a few panels LOL patchwork!
 
What time are you guys expecting to get to the circuit?
 
Me Fran Rhys and my mate will be there about 8:15 fella

WoW, that's keen.... was going to join the convoy, but that's too early for me.
Anyone want to meet at a certain time/place at the circuit to say hi?
 
Just found a 24 hour car wash! Changed rear Tyres, got tax sorted out and serviced the car myself! Just need some sleep and I'm all set for tomorrow! :)

yeah I know Atworth, drive through it every day on my way to work.
Ok for me to meet you in Castle Combe, and is Hanz your name?
No idea about the ASN pitch, hoping that info would have been confirmed so I assume public parking.

Best check with Jojo first as space is at a premium, and we don't want to be leaving people off that registered interest ages ago. Hope you guys understand

Louis, sorry I missed you... was running late and got to the castle at about 10:45, could not see your car so assume you left.
Event was OK, but disapointed though to be honest thought it would have been busier/more trade stands etc.
 
it wasnt a bad turnout in sense of members, but there wasnt enough stands to spend money on.

it was nice putting faces to names and had a few good laughs...

Ash B and Fran sorry i didnt get around to scanning your cars... you know how farhan started moaning about leaving. but will catch up again soon!

some of the best laughs of the day...

"whats your name?"... "ash"... "and your username?".... "itswasntme"... "then who was it? shaggy?"

"i was driving up to the Dartford bridge trying to get there before 6am to save me paying £1.50"... "Blud you wasted £3 fuel trying to get there faster!"

:lmfao:
 
Ash,
You caught me out with as well mate. Proper confusing. Should change you name to something less confusing lol.

Nice you meet mate and the others.

I've decided, sportback is a small A4 avant, Fact!
