Hey Brett,

I am planning on heading down to Bathurst this year with a mate who owns a Mk2 Cooper S. Can't wait for the chance to do a lap in a CooperS (this was one of the main reasons we were making the pilgrimage)

Mind you, we have heard that the Mini-lap is conditional on everything else running to time on the day. I believe the Mini-lap is just before the main race on the Sunday, and as such, will slip off the calender if they are running behind schedule

that lotus clip is amazing.

[PPE]

OMG! All I could think while watching that clip was slow down, too close

I'd be no good on a race track

[Baker]

Shame they won't let us on too. I'd make the trip for it

Hey Brett,

I don't need to send off the form as they won't let either of my 2 minis run (05 MCS & 75 Clubby)! But my mate has the paperwork covered for his '67 MCS :-)

We are planing to camp at this stage - I am thinking about towing our camper trailer down and staking our plot for the weekend. Having said that, we will have to see how the plans develop over the next 6 months...but at this stage I am picturing a Mini fortress surrounded by Falcadore fans, so we would appreciate as many wagons in our circle as possible mate

[brett]

are you camping at the showgrounds or the race track?? The paperwork talks about the showgrounds which is where I was going to camp as I presume all the bathurst capsites would e long gone
