(Sorry, I can't remember all the drivers and cars now )

First Corner, and the meagre crowd are talking amongst themselves.

@FergusMik and @LOGANHEAD831 take Jocke (I think)

Final lap and, yep, the inevitable happens as @SmileyWRX takes the lead.

Logan 'Dick Dastardly' Head tries to pass Fergus 'Peter Perfect' Mik, but fails to take the place, and can only follow Mik to the line.

Nordschleife

Early morning start, heading to the misty Fox Hole.

Poncey black and white picture.

Heading into the sunrise.

Mistakes at the Mini Karussell

EDIT: post number 1000! After 9 years .

Matterhorn


First corner mayhem ensues: @FergusMik gets ahead, Goofy / @Team_SWE_1 takes to the grass in the hope of avoiding the sideways Mini.

The long uphill slog; who got their gears right?

Goofy shows his (Swedish) colours, as he applies pressure to Woodski through the tricky chicane to the steep uphill run.

@SmileyWRX 's team mate succumbs to his constant presence in the rear view mirror - yes the result is predictable.

Crazy low ride height in that last photo.

Crazy low ride height in that last photo.

Partly to do with the way the tyres sink into the grass (or sand or gravel) when you go off road.

[FergusMik]

Awesome pictures Woodski! Thanks for posting.

A bit of action from Cape Ring

Another win for the master, despite Terminator's best efforts to keep Smiley behind. Literally pipped at the post!

I think that is the red Mini in the painting of the Corkscrew in post 312 serviced by my engine builder, Graham Reid of Heritage Garage in Costa Mesa. You can read the Heritage stuff on the back fender. I have some of those round Heritage Racing Team decals shown in the rear window. Definitely one of Alice's cousins. Small world.

I hope he gives it back ready for this Wednesday.

Thanks both, really appreciated.

@MannYhAvitZ, I think they are the first 'bowdowns' I've ever received . I did a lot of photos in GT5 and some of the ideas and techniques are coming back. There is some nice stuff you can do with the GT camera.

@Woodski_427 is right. It is amazing what can be achieved without any post editing.

This would be the Lord of the Rings tournament....


OK guys I would like to get some feed back about running a 10 race tournament with the Mini's .... 16 point spread 16 points for first. 1 point for 16th...we would run this in the middle of the Wednesdays night mini race as a ten lap feature with one pitstop manitory during the race.

"Lord of the Mini Ring"

This would be a 5 race tournament on all the "Mini" tracks 15 lap races... 1 pitstop manitory... Autumn ring mini forward and reverse, Madrid mini forward and reverse, Chamonix mini snow rally track.

Let me know what you guys think of the two options. I will do the scoring of the driver in the tournament as well as I would want another driver to do so as well to keep everything on the up and up...


I'm looking forward to hearing from everyone on your thoughts about this tournament.


There are 16 tracks with the name "Ring" in the name not including all the nur burg layouts... We would like to have the tournament finally to be at the full Nurburg Ring. With at least 5 laps... With double points at the finally.
