I realized today that I didn't specify that the track for tomorrow is the "Mini" layout.

I didn't know there were different layouts to that track.

 

[JockeP22]

My all new MINI. Brand new paint job, brand new set-up.
Maybe now instead of being four seconds off the leaders I'll only be three seconds off..

 

[LastMan]

A lot of fresh pics of groups of MiNi's in this thread, thanks for posting them everybody.

 

[FergusMik]

See you tonight.
Anyone hosting a pre-race lobby?

Maybe later today, I'm out running errands.

Club room closed.

Thanks to everyone who raced!

Me and If on lap 5 of 20. - Two turtles in nature.

And that's why we finished at the back.

Nature note: I could be wrong, but I think those might be tortoises?



By the way all this "If" stuff is a bit silly - the names Paul. 👍

Welcome to the thread Paul.

Welcome to the thread Paul.

Do I have to reapply for club membership?


Good fun last night. It was a sort of Mini NASCAR - turning left all the time!

Surprisingly I really enjoyed that track, it took more concentration than I would have thought.

Yeah, the barriers are close and the kerbs were high.

Actually it took quite a bit of concentration - I was running without ABS for the first time! (I did practice beforehand)


Have to try the reverse layout sometime. There would be less congestion at the first corner.

Since our Minis are already in Spain, I decided we might as well do Sierra this Wednesday.

Race Agenda has been updated for upcoming Wednesday February 11th at Post #2

PLEASE NOTE: Time has been changed to 2 hours earlier, 3:00pm EST/8:00pm GMT. Hopefully this works for everyone, might even be better for our UK and European Miniacs?

Thanks
Mik

 

[IfAndOr]

It's a good job I didn't transport the Mini back home.
Sierra - You might even get into 6th gear Mik.


At one time 10.00 GMT was good for me, but now 8.00 is probably better. 👍

Glad to hear! 👍

I ran a couple laps earlier, never saw 6th.

Oh hell, now I'm confused. I can't work out If you're called Paul, Or you're called Paul............... Advancing years are playing havoc with my grey matter.

But, I know that I LOVE Sierra........ Roll on Wednesday. ("Yes dear, I know I raced on Monday, can't you just find some garbage to watch on telly?" An extract from a conversation somewhere in my near future )

Cheers, Zo.

Go on, you know you want to.

When the course maker (eventually) arrives, I'll make you a track with a long downhill straight.

Advancing years are playing havoc with my grey matter.

Oh yes it certainly does that. Now what was I saying.

Ah, I remember, If And Or Paul will do.

 

[Mr Gear]

If, And or Paul?
What?

Will it rain in Spain?

 

[JockeP22]

Will it rain in Spain?

Dwayne said the rain will remain on the plains and the one with rain skills will rein if he can keep sane.
I'm taking a train there and I'll bring champagne and a book by Mark Twain.

 

[buybon355]

Where are we going

Who can believe the weatherman?

Who can believe the weatherman?

It's quite sunny at Circuito de la Sierra at the moment but rain clouds are known to arrive unexpectedly

Hello everyone.
Sadly, i have to take a break from Gran Turismo.My board exams will start in two months and I'm not really prepared for them. Also, my karting season will start in May and our team has decided to start testing early. I have decided to invest the hours I play GT into studies and fitness. Though I hope to make special appearances once in a while.

See you guys on the Start Finish line in four months!

Smart move, Aaroh. 👍 Good luck.

But now who will challenge Dusty?
