Competed in a sprint at North weald yesterday in the old mans BGT, slowest car there but we had a good laugh, managed to get it sideways in the dry on A539's! First time I've driven it and I was only 0.9 of a second off the pace of the owner, so I was quite pleased, not so sure he was though. The weather managed to stay dry so friends and family enjoyed it too. More pics to follow, so watch this space.

I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like.

Very fetching your new avatar BigWig, however not very appropriate........... I was thinking that! Surely with your snapping skills, you'd have some rather splendid car related stuff?

Calm down, calm down, all changed now.
I was competing in the old mans BGT, I let him use the Mini in 2003 so he was returning the favour, Sunday was at North Weald in Essex but at the end of the next month I should be down at Lydden Hill race circuit in Kent.
The Mini engine is getting rebuilt, Bill Richards is doing the machining, it is going to be offset bored to 1380, 649 cam, split 45 webers, race head, sccr box, limited slip diff, roller rockers etc etc.
Got all the bits apart from the roller rockers...
When it is done, me, Patrick Howe of Raven Racing & Chris Judge are going to have a good go at North Weald so long as all our Mini's are working! Chris has recently snapped the crank on his.

Yeah mate, I've got some snap shots of yours too, but you wouldn't recognise it was her, the horse she is sucking off has his back leg in the way of her face. I should have taken it from a better angle. There will always be a next time though.

I should have taken it from a better angle. You should ask your auntie Barbara about that, she might be able to advise you.
