Hey People

After much enjoyment at Hay, and not doing too badly in the motorkhana, I have come up with a plan.

Being a V8 lover also, I know how territorial some of those people can get. I was just thinking how funny it would be to take the Mini to the Summernats purely to enter the driving events. Realistically the Mini could probably wipe the floor (given the right driver) with the bigger, less nimble cars traditionally at the event. Imagine the uproar if a Mini beat the V8's in their own backyard!!

I haven't been there for a few years and didn't see the driving events when I was there. I wonder if anyone has had the same idea??

If they accept Minis as entries, maybe a few of us should do the same thing!!

Just a thought.
