Hi everybody here is some pictures of Little Franks JJ mini i took last night Very Happy

I asked JJ (Frank) if i could mechanic for him, we didn't have to do much for his first meeting. He took a couple of good bumps in the second race, but JJ said he really enjoyed it when the BBC interviewed him after. Very Happy

Here's Martin trying to shoot the car (Freeze Sucker) lol!

Cool paint job Very Happy

Ready to race Exclamation

For all those that didn't go it stayed dry and i think JJ did good for his first two races.
Hopefully i will mechanic for him again soon
Cheers
Fast Eddie

***NEVER ENOUGH FRANK'S***

One thing that suprised me was that fibreglass shells were allowed in Mini's !? It would seem they are, so suprised it hasnt been done before, unless it's a cost issue? Nice car anyway.

Takes them to be on a wainman car to get noticed. We've had one on Terri-Ann's car all yr. And Josh also has one now. As does Mitchel Peal.

Yeah, never really noticed, but I dont generally look at minis in the pits. Still a little suprised theyre allowed, but I suppose things move on. Are they dear?

FWJ bought one... And he's as tight as a ducks arse. So must be worth the price when you think of man hours in doing a steel one. I dunno what it is though??

And here's summat... When they finally bring in that you can fabricate your own bulkhead you won't actually need a mini to build a ministox... Because you can buy everything else. Subframes.. wheels.. brakes etc etc

Yeah...as I say things move on, but whether for the better or not I dunno. Not much standard / original mini in them really anymore lol!

I bet there arn't too many good Mini body shells left to be had? Ten inch rims are as rare as rocking horse whatsit. The very rare time I aquire one at work I hang on to it (got one at the moment) and flog it to someone if they need a trailer wheel for a bit of back pocket cash.

For a ministox you'd just buy new. As most of the kids want nice shiny alloy wheels ! And mini shells are becoming a bit short
