Myself and fellow Mk1 owner, Paul Hickey, are travelling over the pond to this in July.

The last time I was at Silverstone I was just 7 years old

Anyone else from here going?

Hoping for a good show of Minis in the U2TC race, and hopefully some more of this...

Will do Graham, we're camping for a couple of nights too. Will be traveling in a Transit though so not quite as exciting as a v6 Clio!

See you there neil

Could be!!
I've entered the Min anyway so we shall see!

Will be going with v6.net too Graham and hopefully ORS. Am really pushing to get my mk1 done in time for the 3 day weekend! Living only a few minutes from the circuit, I might resort to pushing it in!!!

Will be good to see you there Brett .if you need a push with the mini ill mention it to my missus

I'll keep you to that!

Only a week to go!

Looks like Minis will be well represented with 12 entries in the U2TC and 6 in the Battle of Britain race. Managed to recruit another Mini fanatic to come along with Paul and I so should be an enjoyable trip.

Hope you have a great weekend. I only wish I could make it down.

im not going, but the tyres from my race car are!

the supply of CR65 tyres is hopeless at the moment!

Me and my dad are down on the Saturday, parking on the MX5 stand though I'm afraid.
Haven't done a car event this year since Blyton so really looking forward to it.
Silverstone Classic is a great event with something for everyone.

Wet qualy today produced a Mini front row lock out, a dry race should produce a frantic first few laps..



Another wet qualy in the Battle Of Britain, spot the Ogle SX1000 and the Deep Sanderson, a quick Marcos would do well!

that's going to be a good few laps wet or dry!

Good luck YMJ, in the B of B race.

I hope he has grown a handle bar moustache for the occasion, and I bet getting the harnesses over a WW2 flying jacket is hard work!

'cortinas at one 'o'clock high'.....

Wait till you see the whites of their eyes.....

They don't like it up em!
