My old mate used to drive in the mini 7s. Tony Ragona. I think he might of been pretty famous in the sport. Back in the 70s or 80s. Anyone heard of him? He said he was the best. He used to tell crazystories that were totally far fetched, then you would find out they were true. Ive never met anyone so eccentric in my life. We got on great.
Il motorsport è italiano, è Italia. L'Inghilterra viene dopo, molto, molto dopo. C'è la Germania ancora prima dell'Inghilterra a cui può rimanere solo l'invidia di essere quarta in Europa, dopo Italia, Germania, Francia e Inghilterra. PS: si mangiamo pizza e spaghetti, meglio della merda che mangiano coloro i quali pensano di ridicolizzare chi in realtà, come l'Italia, mangia bene. Insomma si capisce quanto mi sono simpatici gli inglesi, la loro presunzione e la loro arroganza?
Compared to modern day dustcart-sized SUVs, these look like little Dinky toys. But they are so much more fun to drive - say one life time Mini owner, still driving my Vizard spec 1400cc machine.
Anyone else watched this and immediately starting singing "THIS IS THE SELF PRESERVATION SOCIETY", very loudly in a dodgy cockney accent? No, must be just me then. Plus, God, how I miss my super quick, Car Auction bought, without a reserve, little blue Mini 1000 with its white Weller Wheels, fitted enlarged Cooper brake servo and uprated carb setup. Used to drive it up to the Lombard RAC Rally Stages at Silpho, Broxa & other forest drives, outside Scarborough, North Yorkshire in the early 80's.
Great racing ability being shown here. It's just a pity that the camera operators aren't on the ball when it comes to the pointy end of the race for each class.
Great racing... always a joy to watch... They are all great drivers...so close...so exciting... Mini's always a pleasure. One wonders with all that bouncing....that they could be mixing a cake 🍰 for their friends...or the Winner.. Who bakes the best cake...😅🍰👍👍
Is this brand hatch in England or Germany? Since all I see are Germany's advertise like Dekra, Aral, Deutsche Post. And marshall car is BMW, towing car is Mercedes.
