does anyone know if the people who run avonpark are bothered with a bit of exhaust smoke, lol. me mini seems to be burning a bit of oil, smokes a bit but not smoke screen style, i dont have the time or money to fix it at moment. so will they be bothered at avonpark or not? no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

They never have been in the past - they're more worried about whether your battery and steering wheel are loose, and whether you're physically dropping fluids. They just don't want the track itself to be damaged thus causing delays. On 15th Jul, 2009 fastcarl said:

Haha, yes i have some experience in this area! Mine really was smoking mind! Oil seals in turbo were dead so it smoked like hell when stood but cleared when underload due to it being under pressure. The marshall stopped me and sent me to the scrutineer who tried to tell me that the engine was kaput and said it was poring oil out of the breathers, i then explained what it was and with a few kind words he let me run! So all was well. But from anyone who was there that day they will tell you how bad it was! 1/4 Mile 14.3secs 96Mph Terminal 10psi of boost.
