If the grid is full how can this be who has been informed/invited as the date was only just agreed over the last few post surely this is more evidence that there is some form of hidden agenda. If BARC are running this meeting then they should be setting the cats nor Mr Morris is he at Barc official

Robert Morris · 13 Nov 2008, 18:33 (Ref:2334450)

Sorry i ment to ask what do you race tail out and recreate?

For the purpose of making sure we had a mini celibration race i offered publicly to get it going, so sponsorship etc was moved forward along with a survay to see if we could fill a grid with minis ,this we did very quickly. I am not sure on the time table weather we have enough time to fill 2 grids. I will ask the those that know.

recreate · 13 Nov 2008, 18:44 (Ref:2334456)

it surely does not matter what i race if atall my knowledge of minis is sufficient and ny knowledge of BARC IS ALSO EXTENSIVE so please tell me the format and your position within Barc to set these paramiters

Now then! now then!

Perhaps you would like to reveal yourself Recreate?
If you intend to race, if you even have a mini, if you are willing to help organize the race?
This is a friendly thread and i think some of your wording is not helpful.

recreate · 14 Nov 2008, 08:30 (Ref:2334716)

i do not wish to be negative but as i said earlier it is the 50th annerversary of the MINI and all should have the opportunity to look, get involved and even race if qualified to do so there should not be parameters to exclude but gateways to allow all to race

Big Dave · 14 Nov 2008, 17:44 (Ref:2334949)

Recreate why dint you go to the Mini 7 club or the 750 and ask them why you cant race your truck!!!!!!!!! rules are made by the people entitled to make rules if you want to change them get off your high horse and become one of these people!!!

chezza · 14 Nov 2008, 18:18 (Ref:2334961)

Now now now chaps and chapesses...can we keep this friendly please.

I do have to agree with some of the posts though...if we want a mini celebration, then why limit the types/specs?

Lee, Keep buying cars with 17" slicks - your old ones have done 2hrs at Spa and 2hrs at the Ring and are still going strong - will need some more soon !

Mini tyres are too small!

Robert Morris · 14 Nov 2008, 22:20 (Ref:2335082)

Alan i like your little pic now thats proper sport!!!

Robert Morris · 17 Nov 2008, 19:28 (Ref:2336555)

i seen nice pic of KJW in one of the mini mags today.

kjw · 17 Nov 2008, 21:02 (Ref:2336606)

A couple of questions for you Rob. What mag is that in and how much power does Julian's 1380 produce?

Robert Morris · 17 Nov 2008, 21:08 (Ref:2336611)

November mini mag, Dont know about Julian's power, perhaps he might answer himself.

bdwoody · 17 Nov 2008, 22:28 (Ref:2336666)

about 74bhp rob....

Robert Morris · 17 Nov 2008, 22:37 (Ref:2336673)

woddy yes thats correct with only 2 plug leads connected.

Jules Mini · 17 Nov 2008, 22:59 (Ref:2336689)

Not a bad guess at 74 on two, she makes 142 at 7600 at the flywheel at mech motorsport at cheltenham, the shell is as it left the factory ie inner wings still fitted and no carbon-fibreglass except the dash . ive had the car for 21 years it was my first car I ever had the first modification was a peco backbox and 12 inch wolfrace wheels then we did a bit and did a bit and did a bit until the spec she is at now, me and the old girl go back a long way it was good to get out in her again at brands will see if i can manage some more next year

In the Avatar I pinched it from, they were bouncing up and down,but they seem to have lost something in the posting !

p.s. New back end for Rover should be arriving tomorrow ! Definitely not a good move to attack the pit wall at Brands! Spin was so Violent, I lost track, and still don't know if it was a 360 or a 720 ! - mind you probably made for the closest finish ever for 19-21st in a motor race, Due to spinnage, you beat me by 1/1000th of a second, and I held of 21st by 57/1000th of a second - Thats Close !

Robert Morris · 18 Nov 2008, 08:15 (Ref:2336814)

Alan yes it was close on the line just glad that the 3 of us did not touch as i had 3 attemts to pass the bettle and i was going to do it that time!

Robert Morris · 18 Nov 2008, 10:41 (Ref:2336890)
