I'm afraid I'm going to have to bail on this one.

AMH & RX8 TOO will make it to an event together this year! :lol:

Hi Ann
Sorry that we'll not see you at any of the events this year! I see you have purchased a ticket, is it for sale? I've just had the engine on my 8 rebuilt and I'm ready to go.
All the best

I hope we will see you at some events. JDM is just bad timing for us this year.

I got a refund from Combe for my ticket, sorry. I wasn’t sure if it was transferable, so I asked about a refund and they sent it through.

Thank you Derick and Anne for your updates
We are still two short for our club track session and the 12:45 session so please consider doing the club session at least
This is a fantastic opportunity to showcase our club at a large national show
We are the only club with an exclusive track session and we need the numbers to continue this in the future
There is still room on the stand for anyone else who would like to join us
Ex members and guests can contact myself or Casey for the stand code and can then book direct with Castle Combe to join us on our stand
Members can get the code from the events area
Thank you all for supporting your club at this event
Regards
Pete

Link for club code is in the first post in this thread :thumleft:

Those that know me will tell you, that I'm all about preservation when it comes to my beloved RX8. However, I do have a very competitive nature as well, which may mean I'd end up binning it!😲
I would like to see, and be part of a rolling RX8OC track display, though?

Please can you confirm I have paid. 👍

Will the RX8OC be meeting somewhere prior to arriving at Castle Combe? Or are we just assembling on the stand?

It’s looking like my car is severely overheating so will probably have to skip this one. Does anyone know if the stand and track tickets are refundable/exchangable? Anyone interested in them?

Hi Mark

Check your emails. If you purchased your ticket online, then you'll get sent your hanger the same way. I've downloaded mine.

Look forward to meeting up and having a chat.
