if you ever get a chance, go to Dusseldorf and hire a beer bike (bier bike if you're googling it)
seriously, they're amazing

I can't find a single problem with it though. It points to a fuelling issue as the plugs seem dry but it won't even start on easy start :/

Good final round at castle Combe, even if it was extremely treacherous! Final standings in the championship are Third in TVR Class A and Runner Up Novice! Not bad for first season and only driving for 8 months!

Something is definitely wrong with my spi, it feels so slow! Really lacking power! Even my friends standard 1100 can outrun it with ease!

I know but still, I'd happily swap my car for any carb car in similar condition any day!

The only reason I've got an injection car was because of the price!

There is that...
I went to turn around and thought that the steering was heavier than normal!

You want to see something awesome? Go to any YouTube video, pause it, then press 1, 9, 8, 0 and be amazed...

or tilt, or recursion, or 'google gravity' in i'm feeling lucky. you can also play snake on youtube videos, and I think all the previous google special day games can be found somehow.

TVR was running 36 degrees advance at 4000rpm, jeeeeez no wonder why it was pinking. Rolling road must have cut it pretty close on the timing side for maximum power

On the pintos, we run, that would've melted number 4 in about 8 laps. lol!

Well it melted a set of NGK 8 heat rating plugs in one run!

Good day at Debden racing, knocked 10 seconds off my practise time and was only 5 seconds slower than the winner of the class. apart from snapping a fan belt and developing a grumpy sounding alternator, its been a good day :)

Lost ALL of my college work from this year due to a crappy memory stick, I swear the world is out to get me. EVERYTHING is going wrong at the moment...

should have back it up,one on home pc one on college pc one on memory stick and one on another hardrive

You might be able to rescue it if you take it to a specialist.
Oct 02 2013 08:35 PM -

It was backed up on the college PC but our accounts got wiped when everybody re-enrolled.
Strangely now that I've looked more closely, it's all just Word documents I've done on my home PC and then been corrupted when opened on the college PC.
Anything created on my PC and edited at college went corrupt.
Anything created at college and edited anywhere has been fine.
Not sure what to do really :/

Had to bump start Stiggytoo's car in the college car park, bloody hilarious! Second time I've had to help him due to battery issues!

Oh come on, it was a laugh. Wouldn't be a mini if it didn't have the old 'occasional starting mishap'

New speed bumps in town are so tall that they scrape my sump and almost my number plate even! have to go completely side on to get over, more like speed mountains!!

Going from Godalming up Brighton road towards Hascombe/Dunsfold. Its ridiculous!
Sep 23 2013 01:17 PM -

Ah right, I haven't been up there for a while since they started doing road works. I used to just go up Holloway Hill instead and go across and miss out the speed bumps. I think every Mini owner hates speed bumps haha
Sep 23 2013 01:26 PM -
IainStallard
I told to go that way anyway but its a horrible road now with such big speed bumps
