  • Due to a bit of misfortune in race 1, and a DNF, we started from the very back of the Masters Pre-66 Mini grid. managed to get through the pack and into second place, before the safety car came out and took us to the chequered. Pleased with that one!

    Wow. Speaking as a guy with a competition background in small capacity tourers, that was brilliant not only in the driving aspect but also in the engine prep and chassis set up of the car. Flawless. And you've gotta love getting Minis sideways on entry and drifting that way right through those big open curves at maybe 75+ mph. These cars were initially sold in the late 1950s with 37 bhp.

      Once the race is over, I bet you can get out of your car and run through a brick wall with ease.

    At Brands, In '94, I watched Ian Gunn start at the back in the Miglia race. Normally he started at the front, many times in pole position, and would do battle with Chris Lewis, Bill Sollis and other front runners for the whole race. But in this particular race, he finished first a few lengths ahead of Chris who had led most of the race. Ian was on a mission. I don't remember why I wasn't racing that day, but glad I got to watch that one. BTW, I was running the Clive Trickey Mini. Ron

    Phenomenal Drive....smooth is fast but you were caning it & grabbing all the lines. Especially love your shifts. Need to know what box n ratios you have in there + what tires you were running. My track setup is hard but using sticky Hoosiers 19 x 5 x 10 inch. From a fellow '65 Mini Cooper S racer here in the USA. I enjoyed your incar.

    Awesome - “back down memory lane” … and if that camera was angled just a fraction lower so that we didnt see the inside of the roof, we’d have all seen some bloody nice footwork too I reckon - would have been nice to see a bit of the old heel and toe a few times on those quick changes from third down to second I reckon.

    When did we go from the Minis cocking a wheel to sliding the tails out? Back when we went to the racing you would have 20 odd Mini Sevens all chasing each other round a corner on three wheels!
