ade have you tried shakespear raceway (stratford) where the mini showdown is held? i know its quite away from alot on here but it never gets hugely busy like santapod. Everytime ive been there most have got in lots of runs in

so how many runs was you hoping to get in thta day?

Hi Dean

I know of avon park as i went last year to the mini showdown. It's just a shame it's quite alot further away!! Santa pod is only about 30mins from my house.

To be honest I was hoping for about 3-5runs which I don't think was overly optimistic!

Hell I'd have been happy with one good run!! :D ;D

Windows we made from perspex. Originally used 3mm which was a bit thin so have re-done them in 5mm which is much better! :w00t:

The rails and slider bit thingme came from plastics 4 perfomance i think. Doddle to fit. Hope that helps! :thumbsup:

Thanks Joe got told off early on for starting it up and giving it a little blip....... :xxx: :thumbsup:

Was nice to see them both together on display and to see the pick-up getting the attention it deserves! (was also nice to see it get there and back without breaking in some way shape or form!!! lol :w00t: :xxx: )

And for those who didn't make it to Stoneleigh. :ermm:

The re-spray came in at £1500 in the end. Not too bad considering the 70hrs of prep work!!!!
