A bit harsh, He's obviously learnt his lessons sure isn't he taken 2 days just to get to the start, all he has to do then is follow Liam Cotter to the finish.No better man than Liam to lead the way on this his 13th run.

Good luck and safe driving to all on the weekend.
Wish I was there :D

Best of luck to everyone and safe journey! So angry I'm missing it, but communion takes preference! A communion is once, but a mini is for life! :D

Good luck to all taking part in the MTM. Didn't make the start only got the engine back in last night !! Anyway pressure off now 2013 deadline should be met, hopefully !!! After years without a mini I forgot just how much of a pain in the arse that can be to rebuild one! Pic of the engine finally in car, haven't dared start it yet though.......

Just had Coonos Cab, KMG, and Darran here for a cuppa on their way back up the M8. Sounds like it was another great event. Well done to all concerned.
