I hope accuweather is right!

Decent turbo weather.

Yep, lets meet there as you guys did last time. I can see from the thread for ADI 2015 meetup time was 8:30am, did that work out ok? Assuming it did...

Meetup: Premier Inn Car Park (next to Costa Coffee), M4 Junction 16 @ 8:30am. Postcode SN5 8UB

I might even stay the night at the premier inn! Saves an early start on Sat.

Looks like there's a 24hr shell garage 7min away (SN5 5XS) in case anyone wants to fill up before meeting and driving to the show (probably a good idea if you're going on track).

Faisal, would you mind copying the meeting part of this post into your original post for easy reference as I have to keep hunting back through all the pages to find this post (I forget what page it's on).

[FaisalJ]

Good call Mike - added to 1st post

A few questions please guys
# I'll be meeting at jct 16 do I pay for my pass there .
# how much is track day ( can I pay on day )
# parade lap is this extra if paying for track day

Thanks in advance

Hey mate, in answer to your questions:

1. The stand pass is free - you just need to pay entry to the venue at the gate: £10 per adult

2. Track sessions need to be booked in advance at the event website:

http://www.audidriverinternational.co.uk/

Thanks lookin forward to this
Track --> Book Online

Single session £45, half day £99, full day £159

3. If you're on a club stand, you get included in the parade lap for free


By the way; although we've filled the 25 stand spots we were allocated, I reckon I could wrangle a couple more if anyone is still considering joining. PM me and I'll see if I can work something out.

Meh. You'll be right once you've had a fry up in the cafe at Combe.

Remid me not to get in your car on Saturday morning then!

Booked a single session on track, just to have a go

I won't be breaking any lap records, but perhaps some ear drums before I get turfed off for being too loud

[Covkiller]

I was noise measured in 2014 and well over, so no track sesh for me

[pule333]

You can disconect the flaps and manually close the valves for the test and reconnect after also please bring a box of earplugs for us all

[FaisalJ]

I *should* be OK for the static noise test; 4500rpm (valves will be closed in normal mode).

The issue will be if they decide to monitor drive-by (I spoke to someone at the track a couple of weeks ago and apparently they make a call on the day whether to monitor it or not).

Sorry i be going straight to track Sat so don't wait for me

Don't know about you but they always ask my to rev to 6k.

I think that's the case at most circuits; they ask you to rev to 3/4 of the max revs. Castle Combe have a different test for whatever reason. Let's see!

[Grizwold]

Is it possible to book track on the day ?
