Hi Mark,
Pics would be great. When we have some details we can work on a route to and from Wakefield. It will depend alot on what time we have to be at Wakefield.

Hi Robbo,
Sensational times in that MINI of yours. Congratulations . . . . you can start from the back of the grid. Give you some passing practice

I should have more details on the MINI part of the days proceedings early next week. I'll see if we can take passengers. They'll need a helmut however given the type of event we are participating in . . . flatout for 6 laps

, only passing on straights (including short ones

) we should be OK.

To eazy! Pictures it is.

Coop's.

I'm in for sure....

I went down to Wakefield park yesterday to do some testing with the new suspension. Unfortunately after the testing on street tyres i heard this grinding noise in the rear brakes and found i was metal to metal on one side

So i had to make a mad dash down to Canberra for some rear pads. By the time i got back and the Whiteline boys installed them, swapped over to the new semi-slick, their was only enough time to put one of the Whiteline Distributors from WA and the Fast Fours MAgazine Deputy Editor in it for some for some laps. I never got onto the track with the new slicks

big bummer....
However, the guy from Fast Fours MAgazine was totally blown away by the Mini... He couldn't believe I had a car that was that good as a daily driver.... Now that is testament to how good the Mini is

So basically i am keen for some more laps and i think the day should be awesome

Someone will have to make a BBQ out of a MINI. I've seen them made from old Minis and VWs etc
