Rally Australia Stunt Minis

It is actually very purple in the sunlight, but for some reason when you take a photo, it looks very blue with no purple..?
I've just dropped off the 2nd car back to Mini, and service told me that Home BS have been in and had 12 tyres changed in one hit, because of the stunt driving practice sessions. All 12 tyres were through to the canvass...
I was also told that we can expect to see high speed reverse flicks, 2 wheel driving and precision handbrake parking tricks, which explains why they needed 12 tyres.
I am glad I didn't lend them my car for practice..!!

Do you know if they are on every night?
I might have to reconsider my antipathy towards Rally Australia and go and have a look at this.

Any videos of those stunt cars around Patrick?alexpalex said:
Home don't have any...I asked earlier today.
So not unless one turns up from another member.
I think it would be painful to watch, judging by the paintwork and windscreen on the BEP.
It looks like someone gave it a jetwash with a sack of grit...

What were they actually doing?
How do you destroy tyres so easily in the dirt? Let alone windscreens?
Hehe, the funniest hting is that someone will buy them without knowing they were the ones that were raped at Rally Australia!!
I hope your vinyl held up Great advertising for you if the paint is in good condition underneath!!

Strangely enough, when Stu Jones put his mini into the wall/armco on the East Coast Targa Rally, the vinyl stickers held up exceptionally well compared to the paint
Great pics AlexPalex
