It took me a moment but I realised that is my old car! I used it for the Junior 1000 championship in 2017 where we got multiple class wins. I have some (ropey) onboard footage round Caerwent on my profile. We did lots of the upgrades to the Micra including group A airbox, guages, rev counter, bilsteins all round, sump guard, polybushes, disc beam etc, I'm glad to see its still kicking about 😁
Great video. Impressive first outing. You need to get Jonny to run a post linking to you now it’s up and running. His magic did wonders for the guys running Auto Funk with their ZR1 🤩
This is fantastic for somebody who aspires to rally someday, and just so happens to have always wanted a k11 Micra. Even if I never do manage to get rallying, at least I can live vicariously through this series.
Currently building a skoda felicia 1.3 from scratch to btrda rally first regs. Im enjoying the process (apart from the rust) but really on a budget. Hopefully il have it done for spring 🤞only things im getting new is the safety equipment otherwise iv got 2 donar cars broken up for parts.
@@automaxwales I'm just hoping for a few more competitors as the size of the fields dwindled significantly since the cough cough virus. It's a great budget/fun way into stage rallying & would hate to see it go.
Cool, apart from the fact all my family live in Bala, i spent 20 years throwing escorts, sunbeams and 205's around the Welsh forests ! Subscribed and glad i found you Sion. Last time i spoke to my brother he was doing an event with Iwan Roberts. Diolch am fawr.
@@automaxwales I live in France now Sion, last time i rallied back was the Cambrian in 2004 i think, finished 2rd in 1600 class in a sunbeam. Will look you up next time i'm back in Gogledd Cymru. Nos da.
Congrats on the channel! I used to work at a land rover dealership where almost every member of the team had a K11 at the same time, mostly in flat red. We had a lease deal on them so they were super cheap as 2nd cars but we ended up falling for them. Little hero cars.
Subbed!!! Feed us that rally micra content.. Watching from New Zealand. Currently building a micro autox hack at the mo... can't wait to watch this series
