Club Lotus Track Day Castle Combe
Report by John Oakley
Club Lotus Chairman Alan Morgan should be congratulated for organising an excellent day.  HLR were very well looked after and given a prime pitch near the race control building.   Our members supported this event in force with our stand being better supported than ever before.  We were warned that  the 'track parade'  would be limited to about 60 mph - at one point I was pulling 7,000 rpm (approx 120 mph)   just to keep up with Alan in the 'works' pace car!  Great fun.             Posted on website 30th May
