Let me guess Mr. Mini Mad - you have not visited my web site davidvizardseminars.com - if you had all your wishes could come true!!

Had a look at the web page David, Im going to book for the seminar in Swansea, Im really looking forward to your lectures..Im glad its moved from September to October though...The September dates coinsided with my 25th wedding anniversary...I have a feeling I would not be having a 26th if I were to attend an engine building lecture.

I look forward to you being there. I can understand the situation with the wife. If you have a one worth keeping then she's the priority - of course if we had not moved the date you could of course have brought he along!

david vizard not sure if you remember me but i met you in the UK you went to austec racing in crawley / manor royal about 2-3 years ago and a few of us turned up in our minis to meet you, you then held a speech about minis and v8's was really good to meet you and will be left with me for some time being able to meet someone of your talent

As strange as it may seem, as I have met at least a thousand different people since then, but I do - at least as a group. I remember you guys were full of enthusiasm for your mini's. Granted it was not about mini's in particular and was only for a couple of hours - but let me ask how you liked (or not) that shorty seminar. ( The real thing will be far grander with dyno engines and other stuff being shown off).
DV

was a really good day even tho like you say was only for a few hours! learn alot about engines from yourself and the workers there will be good to see you doing a talk about mini engines!!

Just as a reminder - I will be at the Birmingham Autosports show on the Mountune Racing booth/stand 12th to 14th. Like to meet as many Mini fans as possible.

On another point and at this stage no more than a thought in the back of my mind but I have a 16 year old daugter who cannot make her mind up just what sort of race car she would like to drive. For 2012 she has got three drives in drag cars - two Mustangs and a rear engined gas dragster. One of the Mustangs, a five speed is her own and she is currently half way through building the race motor for it. But she is telling me she wants to keep her options open. That's good - i told her the worlds most fun car is a race mini. I don't suppose anyone would care to give her some road race lessons in a not to fierce Mini??

I wouldn't be too suprised, if you get a few PM's from members wanting to take up that opportunity, hopeful of becoming your son-in law
