Apologies if this is a bit of a hairbrained idea, but how about a sub section in here where we all write a blog of what we are up to this year?

 

Clearly if we al started a "my race season" in this section it would soon be crammed with threads.

 

I compete in oval circuit racing, so not exactly the pinnacle of mini motorsport, but equally as exciting and time consuming as circuit racing (I suspect).

 

So who's up for getting the mods to create us a sub section where we can post our own threads on the trials and tribulations of our respective seasons?

 

Just a thought!

 

Mike

I'd love to read it, perhaps in the Minis in Motorsport section?

nope, my lad used to race there in the juniors. I do Standlake. Far too much grip in all weathers at Tadley; Standlake grip changes from lap to lap!!

I must try Standlake sometime! I have done 11 seasons at Tongham, but last weekend was the first time I've tried another track. :shades:

due to popular demand I've asked the mods for a subsection.

 

see http://www.theminifo...-in-motorsport/
