Classic MINI Racing Club (ID: 1001881) - Friday August 14th, 2015 @ 3:00pm EDT/7:00pm GMTOpen

[IfAndOr]

Room is closed...... C U all next wednesday

Hopefully I can make it next week. 👍

 

[IfAndOr]

I'm not sure if I can interest anyone but @Sick Cylinder 's got a new race series starting very soon. As usual there's an interesting choice of cars which makes Sick's series a bit different.

I've raced with all the regular guys for a few years and they are a great bunch of clean and friendly racing enthusiasts. But like most series are always trying to attract new drivers.

So click on the link below and go and take a look. You might like what you see...

I can´t open a room tonight as i´m involved in another event tonight, sorry guys but see you all next week.

 

[Team_SWE_1]

Hey all, it´s very quiet in this thread since Mik left....
I will open a room around 6.30 UK time. I hope to meet you there

Yes it is, I've had other commitments lately. I'll try and jump on for a few races Hakan.

Unfortunately, I can´t race tonight as I have hurt my right foot.
I´m sorry guys

Sorry to hear that.
I hope it's nothing too serious and that it gets better soon.

 

[Team_SWE_1]

Haha, Paul. That was a nice picture of what happened to me.... almost like a selfie

It´s not too serious, I hope to be ready for my A to Z event on Sunday.

last week with @LOGANHEAD831 we had thoughts about opening the Mini races to other classic BTCC cars under the same specs PP435 and SS tires. Do you plan to open a Mini only lobby?

 

[Team_SWE_1]

I didn´t know about last wednesdays thoughts, but I don´t mind if we are using different cars with 435pp ans SS tyres.
Let´s see what happens in the room

 

[Aaroh]

I'm sorry @gkgamer, but my ps3 is not starting. Guess I'll have to let it cool down.

Have fun!

 

[IfAndOr]

Sorry @Team_SWE_1 & @gkgamer I couldn't get online until later. When I did, Goofy had gone offline 10 minutes earlier and GK was in a race around Sierra. I thought I'd wait for the race to finish before entering but when I refreshed the screen a little later, he'd gone as well.

Never mind, maybe next time. 👍

Hello everyone! (If there are still some Miniacs monitoring this thread? )

Now that I've settled into a decent weekly routine with my new job, I am available Friday afternoons to race again.

The Race Agenda is at Post #2 , spread the word and hopefully some of you can make it out.

Thanks
Mik

Hi again, Mik.
Some of us were talking about the Mini Club just last night as a matter of fact.

I might need a new invitation since I've tried out various other clubs and had to use up my Mini membership for those.

Will try to make a Friday, but I still don't have a suit and/or tie.

 

[polysmut]

I should be able to do the first hour on the 7th.

Hi Jocke,
Ok, I'll send you a new invite.

Glad to see you back Mik, I won't be able to make every Friday but will certainly join in when I can

 

[IfAndOr]

Hello everyone!

Hi Mik. That's a shock seeing you post again - in a good way.

I might not be able to make the earlier races but I'll try and make it to the later ones.

I'll have to dust off the Mini. It'll probably need a bit of work, new sills and some welding on the rear subframe.


@Zolon32 - Something for those bookclub nights.

Hi Mik

Good to hear minis are back.
6pm a bit early for me but I'll try my best to join a little later.

Fridays are the new Wednesday!
👍

 

[IfAndOr]

6pm a bit early for me

It's currently 7pm for us Sut's (BST). Still a little early but maybe better for you.

 

[Sutsagrd]

It's currently 7pm for us Sut's (BST).

Thanks If. May still miss the start but hopefully be there by 8pm (BST)

 

[FergusMik]

I picked that time thinking it would work for the "across the pond" folks, I'm happy to start later if that's better for everyone?

I could make it 4pm EDT/8pm GMT.

Let me know.

 

[MannYhAvitZ]

What?!
The Minis are back?!

 

[IfAndOr]

I could make it 4pm EDT/8pm GMT.

Just an hour forward would suit me - 7pm GMT (8pm BST)
Evening meal finished, plates washed and dried, cup of coffee finished and a short time to sit down - ready to race.

But I'll go with the flow of what everyone else wants. I can still make the later time.

Ok, let's throw 3pm EDT/7pm GMT out there, is that a good compromise for most?

There's a place that I like to go for drinks on a Friday, if I'm free. A lot of the time I'm not because of work. On those occasions that I am free, I'd love to get some Mini racing done first. The earlier that you start, the more likely I will be to attend. I don't think you should base your plans around that at all, I'm just letting you know my status. 👍

Sounds nice. : )

 

[IfAndOr]

Sounds nice. : )

There's usually other "stuff" happening as well. Sometimes during the racing, as you know.
