Not sure if they do but the club day sure didn't. I'm basing my times off RaceChrono and an external GPS receiver.

Solid day at the MG Motorkhana yesterday. Pretty sure I took out the hotly contested (all-be-it slightly made up) "fastest convertible" class, might have even pipped fastest RWD if I was overly lucky.

Pics to come later.

Results are in.

Third outright, first in class B

Also first in the made up fastest RWD class, being behind a Clio and a GT-R in outright standings. Apparently I really stuffed up the fourth test as I ended up about 15th for that one, which ultimately cost me second place. Still, can't complain too loudly!

Awesome to see joe, Love seeing cars dríven not polished .

EDIT:

i know my standards of a clean car are low so to explain properly, I think jeos car is very clean and i appreciate that he actually flogs the piss out of it.

It's not clean any more Dann. Hasn't been for a while and probably won't be ever again.

Still happy though (provided I don't think too hard about it).

Well now its all out in the open i can say I really like it how it is.

It aint what my car is, and even worse, when people come up and see it in person they laugh that its far worse in real life haha.

I do like a car that looks like a tool, a piece of machinery, it gets cleaned and maintained enough to keep it going, and then its treated like a tool for fun. For enjoyment.

perfect.

10/10 Joe.

Thanks guys

After noticing that the alternator belt was a little worse for wear at the last motorkhana, I went a grabbed a replacement that week (5-6 weeks ago now..). Given that there's another khana on next weekend, guess what I finally got around to doing today!

Another khana last weekend in stupidly cold conditions. It was only ~0 degrees when we turned up for scrutineering at 8, but didn't hit 5 until almost 1pm. At least that's my excuse for the beanie and hood combination.

And results just came in.

4th outright, 1st in class. I thought I did a lot worse on the day.

Another post here must mean another motorkhana!

Amazing day today with our normal runs followed by just a handful of people hanging around after to have a go at some reversing patterns as well. In just half an hour or so after the event was finished but before pack-up, I had more fun than I've had in a car for a long time. Small group, quick runs, constantly someone on track. Was a brilliant end to the what was already a good day.

I'll get some pics and results up once I've got them.

Haven't mentioned it in this thread yet but I'm also still toying with the idea of selling this and buying a Lotus 7 style clubman. Still not sure if I actually want to go down that route just yet but if anyone wants to talk to me about my roadster, please feel free to do so
