Well, the Black Pig Too made its first event, though it did not run, it was nice to see it sitting there its glory. Brock or Blackpig will hopfully tell you the story, but all I can say "It looks real smart" and cant wait until it hits the track.
I did not take any photos this weekend (A little bit busy with track work and trying to run the car) but I know/think Brock took some.

Had a bit of a scary first ride, The Cunning Plan dicided to shake it a arse vilently just before the finish line, I did happen to Dave (My crew man) once, but never done it to me before.
stuck another lb in the tyres and no problems after.

No, the track was very grippy but no heat, just put it down to the tyre pressure.

   A relatively quiet meeting, especially for us, but a good turn out from the Club. A bit of rain Saturday and then a lot Saturday night followed by some more Sunday morning followed by a brightening day caught a lot out with many running quicker and faster than they predicted, apart from the pseudo Welsh amongst us who had it covered, point 007 was it ? A long break in attendance for us meant that there was some serious socialising to be done which in turn meant a late and lazy start to both days, or afternoons in Saturday's case, and coupled with a low battery means not so many photo's, here's a few

   Saturday night at the Minis means Wild Bunch party time, usually a good time to be roaming with a camera, the rain may have stopped a lot of it, it certainly stopped me going out looking, however some came to us...

   Also, amongst throngs of Minis, forsaking the land of pasta and sunshine for rain soaked Warwickshire, the brothers Ferretti got some testing done, passes in the sixes probably made them happy
