[SIZE=2]My husband and I are MG enthusiasts visiting from the USA. We arrive in the UK Monday morning June 11th and hope to be at Castle Combe Circuit by 2pm. Is there anyone who may be willing to take one of us on a lap around the track as a passenger that afternoon? It would be a highlight of our trip. Thank you, Anne and Lee Harris, [/SIZE][EMAIL="scoutingon@yahoo.com"][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]scoutingon@yahoo.com[/COLOR][/SIZE][/EMAIL][SIZE=2](We understand that we will have to rent equipment & sign a waiver.)

[b]Just in case you have not had enough[/b] Hi there, Nice to see that two of our fellow members have already offered you a ride. If you still have time I have a rare 2004 MG ZT260SE - the one fitted with a Mustang engine which might make you feel at home. If you fancy a ride then let me know.

[b]A big thanks[/b] [SIZE=2]A big thanks to you as well Big Frank however I just had the chance to read the event rules and it appears that because our plane will not even arrive in the UK until 10am on the day of the event, the soonest we could be at the track is early afternoon. This means we will not be able to attend the early AM orientation for drivers and passengers and not be able to obtain the required wrist band. Am I understanding this correctly? Is attending the early AM meeting the only way to ride as a passenger? Anne and Lee Harris (Florida Keys USA) [/SIZE]

Hi Anne and Lee, You can arrive at Castle Combe and join in as a passenger at any time. It is not mandatory to have attended the briefing, but you will have to sign the indemnity to get the wristband. When you arrive search out Steve Hill who is the committee member managing the day. It's a small paddock with just 48 cars participating so you should find him or one of the other committee members fairly quickly. Have a great day.
