Just some shots of some Victorian MINIs carving up Arthur's Seat.

CR and DS were the most popular colours today.

Enjoy

Cool shots Chris

Cant wait till I get something capable of taking action shots. Gives a whole new level to photographing the runs

Love that first one of the DS MCS. Great shot

Is that Todd in the 5th one? Looks like hes flipping the bird or something

haha

Great stuff

Shame we missed seeing your baby in flight. Next time you should get someone else to help behind the lens

Cool. Hey Todd's car actually does look lowered there, but it could be cornering load???

MickyD · Nov 7th, 2004, 05:43 AM

I agree Liam it does look lower.......but just on one side.......I think I know what he's done, he's done one side with a Ryobi and the other side with a Makita and it's come out uneven

Glad you guys had a good day, it doesn't look too rainy in the photos.

doona · Nov 7th, 2004, 07:05 AM

Great shots Chris,

That todd... so Hollywood.

Think I am coming under the weather (parden the pun) from standing around in the rain.. sore throat, runny nose... cough, cough.

Was a little wet, but a great morning.

Hey MickyD, dropped in to Autobarn on th way home... they said your undercar neons will be in next week!!

Rice Rice Baby......

Dan

Todd! · Nov 7th, 2004, 07:06 AM

Its not that low guys!?!

It certainly needs to go lower - shant be long

I can tell you all that it was one of the worst days for weather I have ever driven in...

I couldn't believe the water on the road, and with my tyres on the TWI's it got abit hairy on the way home!!

I also had a few little bitsa fun on the Authurs Seat hillclimb... but struggled for traction in the wet

If the rumours are true, we might see a few new JCW's next run

... minus their exhausts...

It was great to catch up with everyone!! I will see everyne back in January as I have the Bright run on next month

Ohhh, I almost forgot!! There was another Chili Red and Black there!!! Totally awesome taste

No photos, I was too busy talking and trying to keep out of the rain to take shots

So between Micky and I, we were pretty bl00dy useless!!

After the run, I went back the the BRGMCS workshop and we did a little bit of modification... so now I get a bit more horsepower at the interior

Great to catch up Dan!!

We had a great table at breakfast, the jokes were flowing like a river

Had a great laugh

Look forward to catching up again!!

(Sorry, BTW I wasnt giving anyone the bird

Everytime I wave to the camera, automatically everyone assumes I was flipping them off...

the only cameras I stick my fingers up at are the ones on the side of the road that "Flash for cash")

doona · Nov 7th, 2004, 07:14 AM

I Take it the mod worked out ok... I think I will have to get you and MickyD to help me out with the Aux install.

Dan

Todd! · Nov 7th, 2004, 07:19 AM

Yeah it went well, then we spent about an hour and a half going, "wow, my car is different to that!!"

ITs amazing to see the differences between the two cars considering one was built Nov 03 (me) and March 04 (micky)

Then I listened to the mst random sample of tracks from my iPod on the way home.... thaks to Gripper for the DVD's

( Thanks XMINIX for your photos )

MickyD · Nov 7th, 2004, 11:34 AM

I've got an excuse!!!

Todd messaged me as the cars were leaving the departure point.... and that's when I figured I'd better get out of bed and get ready to drive the 3k up the road to where I was meeting the convoy

GOGADGET · Nov 7th, 2004, 11:42 AM

I'm going to need a letter from your Mum Micky.
