It's the stress of being one of the main players Nic.

Just turn down the boost and enjoy yourself.

Nic, i feel the same about hillclimbing sometimes. It's a lot of effort to get there, just to scare yourself silly.

But as soon as the green light comes on that's all forgotten, and the feeling after a good run is unbeatable.

When you get hitched, the enjoyment you will find in the garage will increase exponentially with the years!

TurboMinis has ruined my life.

This morning I was trying to talk my mate into selling me his spare 3.0L V6 for my next project.

It's all your fault.

True true

On the friday last year I had a disasterous day and was suffering heavily from the exhaust gases whilst trying to set the shift light in the garage, i could of happily have not have gone, but come the saturday it was a great day

Not just for the racing, but the fun and antics with everyone else in the evening

Minis have ruined my life as well.

However if I didn't spend so much money on them I'd probably end up spending it on booze and cigarettes,so Minis are good for my health*happy*
Though not my sanity.
