Well done guy's, some good times there

Hope the weather held out for you, it was off & on rain here (Epsom) most of the day.

Any idea of the quickest time by a Mini ?

I think Bhozer was referring to verbal grief, it was lucky Roland didnt turn up otherwise he would of cruised into first position and Bhozer would of been trophyless.

Didn't know whether to pick up your trophy Bhozer but I'm sure if you ask them nicely they'll take it to Mini in the Park for you.

Probably a good job Adam didnt turn up from MiniMania either. That Opcon supercharged car of his might even you a run for your money Paul.

Oh wow, I didnt know there was a trophy

And yes, I love giving a bit of verbal grief when I get the stick back from the guys too! always a bit of a hoot. I think next year a few of us might camp over the weekend, despite us being local. Hopefully it will be sunny on both days!

I currently look like Zoidburg from Futurama. So sunburnt, but only on one side of my face from the queue. Was 24C all afternoon.

ooohhh mini in the park, i think i might come up for this, a bit of RWYB action sounds fun, have'nt taken the Mini up now its all GTT 230'sd up, last time was standard.

Are there many new minis at Mini in the park as when i looked on the website it looked mainly for classics

Last year when it was at Oxford in grounds of a stately home so there was quite a few, but I'm not sure whether people will still want to go as much as now the venue is at Santa Pod.

There's a Peak Performance day on the Friday, a RWYB on the Saturday, and then Mini in the Park on the Sunday so there is a good chance to wear your car out over the weekend, but the nice thing is loads of seat time and loads of time to test new ideas / products.

I should mention this before I forget, the competion for Mini Showdown is on the Sunday only but due to the whether they took the times from Saturday.

I had wondered what happened as I was disapointed I couldnt take part on the Sunday. Shame about the weather.

What is the Peak Performance thing at MITP on the Friday?

Maybe someone should start plugging MITP to gather a bit more interest for it this year as its at Santa Pod.

Rob I just realised you would of blown my doors off on runflats your 14.21 against my 14.4, noticed I said would but not with reaction times like that

We'll get the boost leak sorted this weekend for the Bug Jam and try and get a 13 on run flats 12s on slicks and 11s with nitrous.

I would of prefereed to been at the Bedford Cruise last night with an 11 sec ticket on the dashboard.

Peak Performance is a private test day where they prepare the track to event standards and limit the entries, so in theory without oil downs / weather u can sometimes get 20 runs in.

Cost is £60 but if it rains tough luck no refund

How did Dave do??

0.001 quicker than me

All three of us have just added our results to the dbrally.net :: Main Page garage. It has a list of 1/4 mile speeds of member cars, as well as all the mods we have done.

I went to the Cheltenham cruise last night with my ticket on the dash. Certainly shut a few people up that like to diss' to MINI
