Nice to see that green mini with the rs turbo engine (I think, thats what it had 20+ years ago) still running, I raced that at Shakespeare county raceway back in 2001 in my 1293 mini

Most of these guys are used to RWYB prep, the track prep at Doorslammers is a big step up from that so they need to adjust to the extra grip!

A few good cars but so unreliable and inconsistent, most of them have too much power and £30 spent on suspension. That rusty vw bus was cool AF, that wheelie, banging gears, running 10s. mint. .
