Hello All

There are still places available for the Mk1 Performance Action Day at Blyton Park.

It's a great day with open pit and lots of A-series powered cars as well as some race cars with engine swaps etc. It's not all Mk1 minis, I go in my Nimbus and have a right laugh chucking it round the circuit.

Hahaha. I've driven it to a brands day but I'm fairly local there.

It's not so much the worry of breaking it it's the actual driving there and back it's a good few hours.

And you didn't take it up the test hill!

I'd be on track all day if I went.

Sod that, you have to much commitment for mini shows!

I think the 8 hour drive (plus traffic) and all day on track would kill me and the car.

I want to go to it, it looks a great couple of days but it'll probably be next years for me.

I seem to remember I got told not to wheel spin last year 🤔🤔

Think I wheel spinned all the way up it all 5 runs we got lol.

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.
