Mallory MR2 Challenge - MK1 Club BBQ

Post by mr2mk1chick »

The next MR2 Challenge is at Mallory.

The MK1 Club will be having their annual club BBQ - free for club members.

the club stand / parking area is open for all mr2's to join us, rather than park with the public cars. we will be situated on the top of the hill near the entry to the ground, so we get great views of the circuit.

Hope to see you all there to cheer on the MK1 club car.

Have a great time everybody, *really* need to spend some time at the weekend working on the Supernail (other than replacing the brakes and tyres on the other one), so won't be coming.

righto- i'm off to buy burgers etc for the BBQ, then start praying for dry weather.

I don't mind a quick rain shower for the races tho - ahhh.... but i'm forgetting we haven't got Tin Cartledge gooning round this time :lol:

Hope some of you can join us. there will be around 5-6mk1's from the mids region. :thumleft:

Here are a few photos Fred took for me from Mallory at the weekend:

Ouch – a writeoff:

Repairable?…….:

Not economically, I'm afraid. The first Rogue built mk1 race car dies in it's maiden outing... :(

Still, going to look at another one to replace it tonight. :thumleft:

Is this what happens when you dont have a front bumper re-inforcement bar? Or is it still in place on this challenge car....
