James organising an MT group buy. Fire extinguishers for TA 2015 it is! :lol:

Optimist.

I'll say maybe depending on regs, cost and work Rota.

Guys don't forget you will probably need an FIA helmet and possibly a race suit. That could be the best part of £500

The Travel Lodge at brands hatch hid all of theirs after they over heard us talking about needing one for Time Attack, this is a true story.

Ok chaps I received an email back from Glen to say its not actually happening this year as they are going to include it next year, I have replied asking if we could generate enough interest with people paying a deposit that it could be included for Brands since its the final to help launch the class for next year.

and so starts the inaugral MT cup. The current favourite is Jamie however there are concerns that with his constant faff'ing, he may not even get out of the pit

Might stop off at a maserati garage and chop the SL...

If he does it in th sl , might need another pit complex for the 1/2 lap refuel or a tanker following him

Haven't you heard?

He sold a load of wind and has a transporter to carry the SL, Mini, MLJ's M3, and his go kart to the track with a tanker full of super unleaded strapped to it too :scared:

This is disappointing ! hope they do include it !

They need you to email them to express an interest.
Mention MT and say that you are interested in Brands Hatch and getting it off the ground at the end of the season as an insight into TA and prep for next year.

 

[1320MINI]

The original concept was for it to be 4 or 5 specific marques with certain rules to make the racing close..............but you can still all enter your MINI's in club with Lee as OHW

I did it straight away about 2 days ago when you posted about it in your project thread, but I never got a reply :blink: I mentioned that you had posted about it and was trying to get a few of us off the MT boards to attend Brands & so I asked if could they give me some more information to share.

 

[George Talbot]

It's only 5 months too late from the organisers.

A bit sad that MT and its members need to force the organisers to get the ball rolling all because they didn't promote it...

 

[LeeRMR]

But as you see in club, everyone talks about entering and there were 4 people from every marque.

Got to enter it and show support for it to grow sadly.

Not that i am directly interested, just a comment, it's not free to enter and support... is there any motivation for someone to enter?

Time Attack is a proving ground. As we see on here all the time, loads of people talking the talk.
There is great spirit between the teams, the social is very good and you'll pick up some good ideas for your cars (doesn't need to be MINI specific).

You can also push you and your car to your limits and compare like for like against other marques.
The standard of driving was very good at Croft (not so great at Cadwell!) - you learn a lot about yourself at these events.

What's to lose in trying?

Ι am presonally participating in the greek series every now and then, i know the feeling, i am asking about there, because i see cars that cost loads of money, a lot of these 6 digit numbers, and for most of the people it's non sense to enter when they have a very small budget and can't be competitive. Apart from that, those who do have the money to be competitive, can do the real thing. So this is why i am asking, what's the motivation
