Brooklands 12/12

Post by COOPERCO »

The Brooklands 12/12 event is short of two mini's to fill the class to compete against 6 Fiat 500's. This is a fun two day event which 'Our Leader' Mark & myself (amongst others) took part in last year.

Looks a nice event Mike and I'm tempted by the cakes but it's "sandwiched" between Bulee and Prescott ! (sorry couldn't resist). :?

I await a response form Nic with further details. He has accepted the Mk3. :) Hope Wiscombe was good, had thought of popping along but it's a little bit too far this time.

Hi Francis,

Send your details to Nic at the email in the first post. I've been told packs will be going out to competitors very soon so you could have timed it about right!

Mike.

Just a quick reminder that this is the last day today (Sunday), we all managed to dodge the showers yesterday, and I think everyone cleaned all the tests, all the cars are being driven by MK1PC members, so I'm sure there will be some photo's soon :)

Well it's all over! The MK1PC road show invaded Brooklands for the second year & a great time was had by all. My car did find itself attracted to a straw bail on Saturday :oops: A member of the public even decided to dress to match Marks Sprint!
