Excellent day  :D  :D . Thanks to Tim, Steve and all involved for organising this (including the mini chef  :t-up: serving up burgers, bangers and chicken  :cool: )

A couple of photos

You've got to admire a guy who gives it ten tenths on the first lap of a track he's never seen before!  :p  suitable photos may follow  :devil:

Shame about the water pump  :bangshead:

The poor thing didn't know what it was about to be subjected too. I hope it's recovered from Simon's assault  :0

Had great time too. I think a lot of changes are on the way to make the ride a little sharper, not to mention changing the breather set-up to stop a recurrence of the 'oil-all-over-the-engine-bay' episode.

I think a quick release wheel will sort out the steering wheel position, though it didn't feel like it was too far away when I was driving. Being lanky does have its drawbacks :D

Thanks to everyone who organised the event.

Yes, adding a quick release which involves installing an adaptor to convert from the old Austin/BL Mini splines does indeed bring the steering wheel in closer, about 35mm or so.
