Good on you for getting out - I'm sure you'll thoroughly enjoy it.
I've done enough watching and after helping with the organising last year I thought I might have a go this year, it's about time I did.
By the way, Gordon has been taking some good pictures lately, so if Niall lets him off the leash we may get some good snaps.

Just the dash to finish, probably do that tomorrow. Also might give the car a good thrashing as it needs testing. About 50 miles should do it.

Good luck Ian.
Could do with help with the marshalling if you can spare the time? Free buffet for marshals at the finish plus you get to see Stuart and Davy drive past in 'knob'
We are coming up week begining17th Hexham monday, then I think curry night @ "The olde cross" Ryton with a couple of old muckers, I could be free for Saturday.

Yes Graeme we're good to go
If anyone else fancies a run out on the only competitive Motorsport event solely for minis though, we'd be more than happy to oblige

I remembered to pop them of Knobby whilst we had the wheels off. I'm not having any Mars bars as tying them may not keep them down
