There not amazing, you can't see much, ive got to edit them first though as there 2gb and have about 10 minutes of me waiting in the queue.

The best bit is though, you hear me say to my mate "I bet im faster than that S4 through here"









Then I spin.:thumbsup:

Look like you had fun, nothing better than hammering it round a track. Who took the pictures?

Alright mate, i've probably posted in this thread before, but it was a while back i think.

Love this project, especially the trackday! If you don't mind me asking, how much was it for the day? I'd love to take my car on a track, but at like £300 for one day's driving, i can't justify it. Largely due to the chance of blowing the car up after one lap, as minis do.

How's the turbo parts-gathering coming along?

Cheers, Paul.

Thanks mate, £80 for the day. One of the cheapest days available and a fun track. A mini shouldn't blow up though.

Still gathering the turbo parts, but going to put the 1380 together first.

If it ever gets a turbo it won't be soon.
