Mini progress
Re: Mini progress
I go so far as a say they're shit, but a) now we know TADTS b) you don't really need them anyway (just the odd little stab to balance/unbalance the car)

They should have a ok-ish pedal but work incredibly...

Re: Mini progress
Yep - Braking well past the brake boards into the hairpin. Taking massive chunks back out of folk that had the power advantage.
Re: Mini progress
The braking point for the BTCC boys was interesting on Sunday, i need to get my big girl pants on next time i am out in the loltus
Re: Mini progress
Decent shot from Wednesday night - me driving.
Re: Mini progress
Had so many people after bits, i basically decided the car was going as one, or as a rolling shell and drivetrain, with ECU etc, could get a deal over the line and was being offered all sorts of part ex's, none of which floated my boat so i will get it back out before the end of the year and reassess post what I want to do with it....

How far from road legal is it? If you could make it road legal you could ask big money for it.Foz wrote: ↑Tue Aug 24, 2021 3:44 pm Had so many people after bits, i basically decided the car was going as one, or as a rolling shell and drivetrain, with ECU etc, could get a deal over the line and was being offered all sorts of part ex's, none of which floated my boat so i will get it back out before the end of the year and reassess post what I want to do with it....
Re: Mini progress
Is the Mini going to be at Cadwell on Sunday?
Re: Mini progress
Ah ok. I was just browsing the Cadwell site and noticed the Scottish invasion incoming.
Re: Mini progress
We were supposed to be down there in the Formula Ford, but silly squabbling and politics killed it - one team tried to throw its weight around to have the round moved to Oulton Park, and effectively got Cadwell cancelled due to lack of entries, but then another team used it's veto to stop Oulton being recognised as a championship round. So we've ended up with nothing

Re: Mini progress
I'm going to pop along on Saturday morning.
Not to cheer @scotta on in his first race, but to deliver the copy of the Comprehensive Racing Driver Excuses Book - Middle Aged East Lothian Bloke Edition he asked me to get him. Fuck me this thing is massive - will probably need to take the E-Tron.
As this is his maiden voyage, I fully expect assurances of "No Heroics", but probably in a @Maurice stylee*
Forecast (for Saturday at least) looks pretty good. But it's Knockhill, so snow and blistering heatwave are equally likely.
*(full attack mode + 1).
