    I like this video because it's rookie friendly, not worried about perfection and positioning your wheels one inch to the left of this curb or that. Just a general guide to having at least an enjoyable and mishap free lap.

      Mark has often used 2.0TDi Audi A4 for instruction, sometimes a Toyota Avensis! Just to prove that it's all about the driver and the inputs they make to the car.

    Avon Rise in the wet must be a bit bottom clenching. Looking to do my first ever trackday and I'm wondering if Combe is a bit too difficult for an absolute novice.

      Avon Rise used to be a proper RISE ,it got levelled out for safety reasons.....

    Avon Rise and Quarry account for about 95% of the Castle Combe crash and action videos on UA-cam :)

    Having a rear view and front, off car is just confusing. Keep to driver's POV

      Hi Portaccio, from memory a 1.9TDI or maybe 2.0TDI Audi A4

    Are the lines petty much the same for a bike?

    • @merlinmotorsport
      @merlinmotorsport  7 років тому

      Hello. The lines are similar for bikes. Although bikes do use an extra chicane just before the last corner (Camp Corner). It may be worth contacting the circuit for more advice. www.castlecombemotorcycling.co.uk
