The official M7RC Miglia lap record is 46.6 set in March 94 by Jonathan Lee in a 1.0L spec 5 port car.

I think Bill has been in the mid 45's in his eight port, not sure what his best 5 port time is though.

Mig, I think you have done a low 46 around Lydden haven't you?

As for the second, it made a funny noise during the green flag lap apart from that no warning.
I will report back when i know.
Would like to say thanks to cujo for his advice over the weekend.
first job new anti roll bar.
It was good to see you going so well Tris, hope the problem is a cheap one to fix. Glad my weather prediction was wong (again!)

Big Dave does a very good roll bar, just don't let him near your hat!

Thought your eyes looked a bit odd at Lydden.

And I meant 'Saturdays' results, not Sundays!

Tris, any idea how the championship results look, nothing recent up on the SEMSEC site.

Simon Arron, the Motorsport News GP columnist was at Lydden on Sat. as an antidote to writing anything about the forthcoming showdown in Brazil.Titled, Getting back to Grass Roots,he hadn't been there for 23 years and likened the circuit to a timecapsule. A sprinting Lotus Cortina was pictured and he said ' the landscape is embellished with a sprinkling of lower case Minis, all in diverse states of suspension and body tune'

Good picture of Bill R leading the pack ahead of Gerald, and Rob gets a mention in the handicap write up. Just behind the Lotus Cortina, you can just make out the ghostly figure of a friendly giant who appears to be waving (his lucky) driveshaft whilst covered in a strange foaming liquid. Or am I imagining things ?

Is the foaming liquid from A: Fire estinguisher or B. a combination of Guiness and Cider, or C. a combination of all three.

Either way, I think we know who you mean
