Today was brilliant! :grin:
Even got a little drive around the curcuit.

Was the mini forum stand even there. And if it was, Where the heck was it. I was there and I couldnt find it. :sad:

Anyway, My exhaust blew out on the way around the track, So the noisy bugger was me. :)

we got 3 laps round what fun that was, myself and pooky were side by side at some points :grin:

did you manage to film all of it? i only got the first lap as my battery died.

what a sight though by the time we were halfway round the track all the minis had got on - note non were race minis, just the cars from the stands and the car park.
all the cars went round 3 a brest. :cool:

in that pic of Pooky's you can see my car in front of pooky's covered in TMF posters about B2N and i was asked lots of questions about the run and many came up and said, hey your that minicooperman chap nice to meet you :)

at the stand i represented TMF and MiniSE as did Pooky and MiniSi.

my car started the M I N I SE lettering of the windscreens as you can see and this was the main launch to the world of MiniSE and we won BEST CLUB STAND out of the other 10+ clubs that took part.

nice to have met up with pippy and company :grin:

had a nice chat with bill richards with jammy basturd

and i took some photos and 62 mins of film of the whole event including the journey there, set up of the stand, the brands circuit, mighty mini and extreme mini racing, and our special 3 laps round the circuit.

overall a great day, nice to have met you all.

only negative things were there were only 2 places selling bottled water and one ran out.
the stands were disappointing, not many there and not much on offer
my 2 way radio went missing - no trace on that
and i got sun burnt :)

heres a pic of Pooky and friend :wink:
