I think you are thinking of James Guest in the Clubman Honda BD, that's in class 2. I think James Bisland might run a Midget. Tris, is that who you had some rubbing with last time out?

[Cujo]

I know this year is not finished yet for some SE Mini racers,
but who is planning to race their Mini where next year?

[Minicross424]

Yes cujo it was me who had the rubbing last meeting!
Im planning an attack on the semsec sports and saloons next year, you heard it here first.

[Minicross424]

Hi again, quick question from my Dad to all you mini racers..... we currently only have a 10 litre fuel tank fitted and are a bit concerned it won't be enough for Saturday's 12 lap races, anyone know exactly how much their (1380) mini uses in a race?
Many thanks,
Chris and Richard

[Robert Morris]

Chris.

Gemma uses about 25l for a practise and 2 race meeting with the dmn .

Thanks Rob, so that's approx 32 laps (8 prac?, 2 x 12 lap races)? If so we should be ok (just!).

[rww]

Rob,

My excuse will be - I stopped for a splash and dash. Will you be at Lydden on Sat. and if so I will return your Magnetronic unit then. Otherwise, will post on the Monday. As well as the Magnetronic failing, the Omex limiter was also damaged with an engine stopping fault. No wonder we couldn't diagnose the problem.

[Robert Morris]

RWW yes i will be at lydden sat so will see you then.
Yes Gemma and i have entered same race . Scarey father and daughter in same race i wonder which one of us will give way first, 2 purple minis out same time keep time keepers busy.

Chris – 10L for a 12 lap dry race )plus warm-up and red flag contingency) is a bit marginal. However the BBC Forecast for Saturday is now for heavy rain, so you should use less fuel in the wet

Gemma, have you been doing your rain dance again

[Robert Morris]

Steve What the betting on gemma getting the new set of wets?

Thanks Steve, you're right it will be close.

If BBC says rain then I'd leave the rain tyres at home - I've given up with them!! Weather.com says cold but dry for Saturday...

... oh dear, just looked at the Met, better take the wets after all:

Fair point Chris, Tris will tell you how good I am at weather/tyre advice
