If Carling made Mini engines
it would probably be like this one!

Cheers,

I was at Avon last week, and was hoping to make Classic Ford at Satna Pod this weekend.

But the supercharger bearings decided otherwise. They started getting noisy on the drive down to Avon, so I only did a couple of runs, then removed the belt for the drive home.
Im trying to DIY repair that...if I cant, its back to the US :( god knows how long that might take though. I really dont want to have to do that.

Some mods I did recently, dont seem to have paid off, so I'll be swapping back before racing again.
Have some other work to do too, so perhaps Retro at Santa Pod early July is looking more likely.

Although I do quite fancy a nosey at this years Mini event at Avon.

9.85 @ 145mph
202mph standing mile
speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

The showdown would be good Steve - if you get the charger sorted before then -

cheers JK
