Maybe, just maybe, I might be able to make some races tonight!

I finished the eternal renovation project before Christmas, so the only things in the way are the January hibernation instinct and possible wife intervention .

I think you need some Mini time for yourself finally? 👍

Looked in my garage, I didn't even have a Mini.

Are you sure? They are quite small, you could have one hidden somewhere at the back.


Mik - I might try and make it for some of the later races at least.

 

[numbnuts70]

Yep I'm sure, I didn't even have any of the BMW versions....................apologies, did I just blaspheme?

135hp Mini in Saddle Tan, fully stripped and ready for the Green Hell.

I almost squeezed in for a race tonight but timed it badly. Sorry for the quick exit but I didn't have time for 3 laps of the 'Ring. If I'm on next week it will be for a much longer period.

 

[RMan72]

Great races tonight, hope it snows for next week 

 

[buybon355]

Great fun tonight, another couple thousand laps practice and I should look less of a drunk driver lol

Lmao, it was pretty funny to follow you.

 

[FergusMik]

Ok folks, during our last race tonight, somewhere around 7800 miles on the odometer, my Mini finally wants an oil change! Now we know. 👍

Thanks everyone who came out tonight, had lots of fun and great racing!

I was truly, truly terrible yesterday.
I should feel right at home in the snow though.

It's a good job it's microphones only and that we don't have a video feed then.

Am I going to have to initiate a dress code in the Mini Club?

It's a pity the Mini is a 98, not a 99.

(Probably have to be British to get that one)
