Castle Combe Circuit |
||||||||||
|
Castle Combe Circuit opened in 1950 on the site of an old World War 2 airbase. Since then it has been transformed in to one of the leading circuits in the United Kingdom and has the reputation of attracting the best crowds in national motorsport. Over the last 56 years, most of the great names in motor racing have competed around Castle Combe's challenging corners including names like Stirling 
Moss, Nigel Mansell, Ayrton Senna and David Coulthard.
For spectators, Castle Combe offers probably the best value in the area. With free admission for under 15 year olds and adult tickets ranging in price from just £12, it means that a family of 4 can enjoy up to 10 races on an action packed day for just £24.
Parking is free and each of the principle corners offers fine viewing 
for over half of the circuit.
In addition to the racing events, a comprehensive range of driving activities is also available. A modern fleet of Ford Focus Saloons, Formula Ford Racing Cars supplemented by Lotus Elises and the latest 2007 specification Subaru Impreza WRX.
As a complete contrast, the Castle Combe Rally School launched just 12 months ago provides an exciting alternative on our special gravel stage.
