Fastest mini in the world race 2009 - Page 3

micky rason · 23 Jun 2009, 21:25 (Ref:2489371)

hi guys
sorry to go a bit off topic but someone may be able to help. i am trying to find someone who has the results sheet for the First "Fastest mini in the world race" at silverstone in 1994. I did have a mobile for Bill Sollis who was another class (and race) winner but no more, so if anyone can help or ask Bill for me i would be very greatfull.
Also if i can find an engine and box i might be able to do the 2010 race

Hi Micky I think i have got a result sheet somewhere i will see if i can dig it out if i remember correctly it was myself and Ron Graham who were between you and your brother for the first part of the race, Ron had the original car and car conversion mini Ill see what i can find

Harvey Deaths Rollcentre "mini" won`t be appearing according to todays MN.

Minicross424 · 24 Jun 2009, 15:58 (Ref:2489862)

Dont know about that, ask Rob Morris

Rod Birley · 24 Jun 2009, 16:23 (Ref:2489880)

Sad to say Harvey had a shunt testing it at Silverstone. He was hoping to get it repaired in time, but it looks unlikely. However, Endaf Owens is bringing his 250BHP turbocharged monster, and don't under estimate the likes of Gerald Dale, Nick Swift and Ken Welch. One thing is for sure, there should be some great racing on the tight confines of Lydden, where you can see nearly all the action. Once I know the TV broadcast dates/times I will let everyone know.

Hey Jules that would be great if you have. i can remember Chris Judge up my A*se for most of the race till he sneaked past me on his bloody slicks when i let leaders Bill, Pete and Martin past. Thanks go to Mini World for publishing a nice pic of that precise moment in their report

Quick point of interest to anyone whos enterd a F M in the W race in the past, in the first one a guy called Rik Boon towed his MK2 "S" to the circuit with a mini pick up...from Holland, only to be told he was not allowed to race! now thats what i call a bummer!

Jimster · 25 Jun 2009, 11:52 (Ref:2490379)

it will be interesting to see how Endaf gets on in my car, as he's only ever driven it once before.

Minicross424 · 25 Jun 2009, 14:09 (Ref:2490469)

Tell us more about it jimster, any pics?

Jimster · 25 Jun 2009, 14:43 (Ref:2490482)

there is info on the mini at www.sheepspeed.com under the cars section

Minicross424 · 25 Jun 2009, 15:35 (Ref:2490511)

The road legal yellow one i gather.
Very nice, did not know such a conversion for an engine was out there.

Jimster · 25 Jun 2009, 15:39 (Ref:2490514)

Thats right, the yellow road legal one. although it's not nice on the road. this converision was the first one done with a turbo. I did this myself before the kits where available. fingers crossed it holds together. Although we'll not be running full boost on the weekend

Robert Morris · 25 Jun 2009, 16:13 (Ref:2490532)

Jim and Endath we will do our best to make sure you have a good time, im sure Endath will do his best

Jimster · 25 Jun 2009, 16:22 (Ref:2490539)

Cheers Robert, although he spells him name Endaf

Is that Kent based Chris Judge? Just wondering as know someone of the same name that currently has a mini [but don't think this one is rollcaged etc] uses it for autotests and the like [as well as sprinting a racing a Jedi Mk4] so wondered.

chezza · 27 Jun 2009, 10:19 (Ref:2491533)

Well we've just had the practice times in for both Mini Groups and currently Bill Richard is leading the times, closely followed by Richard Casey only 1 tenth behind...looks like there is going to be some excellent racing.

col rooney · 27 Jun 2009, 22:19 (Ref:2491750)

Im not into minis but would love to get down to lydden to see who comes out on top i would be over the moon to see bill richards win this

Thanks to Rob Morris and Rod Birley for creating a very special weekend at Lydden. Certainly one of the best ever.
