Don't forget to give Soot a decent service before hand, and check the gaps, on the points and tappets... Get all that done, and things will go better come RR time  |

Saw your mini whilst i was down there today, it was just being driven on to the rollers as i left.
the car before it was a grass track mini (998) i watched him reprofile the needle etc before it had 28bhp at the wheels and after he done the needle it was 33bhp.
mine is now booked in for next wednesday.
