If there is someone else will have to run it, we're out.

rc-mini pulled out after the 2103 Nats at Mornington. It limped along in 2014 and 2015 under other administration but the boom has long gone as has the days of getting 5-6 full heats.

So we've got 87 or so more years of rc-mini?

Sorry Andy...We're running at the Vics and for me that will be my first Mini race since 2013 in Adelaide. And even this is just a one off.

Tim and I will be running again later in the year at the Bendigo Classic. Quite a few months away I know, but still. And I wont be running the KFC van shell this time so I'll be quite a bit quicker...
Be there.

Tim set TQ (or was it 2nd?) at the SA Titles 3/4 years back with a car that had virtually zero oil in all 4 shocks.
Which shows you how little relevance they have on a Mini.
