Could something like this be an option for you to make a good one if your housing is sound?

Not bad..., don;t know what the issue is yet. The previous owner had the box rebuilt <10,000 miles ago. Oil absolutely everywhere, no noises before, during and after blow up, all gears still engage (could not tell there was a problem inside the car, apart from the huge contrail in the rear view mirror). I have no idea if its something simple (ie. box in) or something terminal (box out). It it has to come out, then I think I'm looking at £4k.

Holy crap dude! Are you near anyone that is going that could pick you up?
I have some alternatives... If the weather is fine, then Ducati, otherwise a B*W 320d ;-(
All I need to do now is sell a kidney...

Well, managed to arrange my travel plans to be back in the UK on Friday so I could make Castle Combe, however this morning the gearbox let go in huge clouds of very expensive smoke..., another one bites the dust..

Hi,
Quick question.. do we have to pre book tickets to get on the club stand, or can we just buy them in the gate ?
I ask, as the booking web site is charging a £2 booking fee. Yes, I know it's only two quid, but it's 20% of the ticket price, and I object to this on general principle !
I've been to a number of events at Combe over the years and have been able to get on stands in the paddock buy paying on the gate...
