Here's a video I made of the day. It's mostly stuff on the Middlesex Mini Club stand and some posing Minis!

MMC at Castle Combe

There's a few shots of the Bournemouth Mini Club who were opposite us and a rolling shot of that roof chopped R1 clubby! All in all a great day and hopefully first of many videos I want to start doing. Enjoy!

Awesome video mate,

that bluey grey clubby was AWESOME! what was it is it a sprint with a clubby front or am I way off.

Anyone get pictures of the matt black mini with white arches and a ghetto oil cooler, oh and no clutch hyrdaulics?

Did you break down on the way home on the side of a roundabout? I'm sure I saw you with an RAC transit parked in front of you as we went around in the RAC truck with the green mini on the back.

Im afraid i did....

this was the problem.

Cheers! I think the owner was saying that it was all steel? (I think) but all I know it's a crazy chop! Really well done.

Cheers dude! I used two drawer rails and two chrome handles from Homebase, used the tripod head off one of those mini tripods from a Pound store, some wood and some tennis grip. I'll post it on my blog in the next few days! I love all the JDM/drift style videos so I wanted to try it out with Minis! I saw your Mini and wanted to say 'Hi' but you weren't around. Next time aye!

If its the one im thinking of, its running a homebrewed r1 subframe (like pro mo). Apparently the owner had a zcars before and didnt like it so sold it and build this thing

Well after sadly missing SMD & the Pod due to Henny's tantrums, attending Combe this year made up for it all! Left dad at home, and took mum this year who said the night before "what's fun about watching minis driving round in circles?" She suddenly has a silly grin on her face for the whole day!!

The racing was immense to watch as always, and I must say from what I saw, there were fewer prangs to last year, but sadly more engine problems for lots. We sat at Quarry Corner from about 9-30am til just after 1pm, it was so thrilling to watch!

As part of an early birthday present, mum suprised me by buying me a teaser run with Bill Richards in his roundnose mini OMG!!!!!!! That man truly flies!! A lovely man as well with such amazing talents!!!! I had one hand on the roll cage, and the other on the 4 point harness strapping me in, it was truly a breathtaking experience to go round the circuit with a professional who can show you how the circuit should feel like when driven properly. It was wonderful, defenately something I will do again!

Was great to see the TMF'rs who came to say hello. Went to the stand about 3 ish and it was deserted so figured you'd all gone for a wander.

My photos from the day are on FB for those who have me added. Will add a few links here for those who don't later on P.S. Feel free to tag

Really good day, Thanks to those who organised the TMF stand, see you again next year, and Hopefully i'll be in my own mini...

[mini-man-dan]

Had an amazing day, was the first time I ever got to drive my Mini Pickup. The car performed very well - even better than I was expecting. Will be booking myself in to future track days at Combe and see how many non-Minis I can keep up with!

Was great to have both mine and Teapot's Pickups together on the stand.

What an awesome day, loads to see, loved the chopped roof/body clubman! Favourite car of the day.

Bring on next year!!

Dan

had a great day especially as I missed it last year due to the Birth of my son, Austin the day before! On the upside, it was his birthday this year so I took him to the show.....IN THE MINI!!

He loved his first trip in the car that shares his name!
