"Thanks to John and Dave for a great Run - almost as slow as the Oggies Run." "There are different types of runs and events, this was one of the leisurely ones for certain." I have to admit that these comments have me concerned. I thought this was a Run and not a Track Day; it was plenty fast enough for me as I have no intention of either collecting points on my licence or killing wildlife. It does seem to me as though South Coast New MINI is increasingly becoming a modified Cooper S only-club and certain members would be happier if those of us without superchargers were not around to slow everyone else down. Works for me.


I'm not sure you have enough experience of SCNM to make that assumption Kieth. SCNM runs have got slower as the years have gone on and I can say they useto be really quick and I could keep up in a One! The only reason I found it slow was 30mph in a 60 and 25mph in a 40. There has never been a mention that people should ever break the speed limit or drive above a speed they are comfortable with.

I would love to hear your real reasoning for such a statement especially when the Cooper S owners are often the ones that do cruise at slower speeds as they drink petrol in comparision to the Ones or Coopers.

Here is the video from the forest: http:// www.scnm.co.uk/ e107_files/ downloads/BBQ% 20Run.wmv

If I had know there would have been enough time I would have put it on high quality instead.
