Spent several hours this Saturday and Sunday getting my cars ready for this week's Historic Saloon, American Pony Car and Vintage Sports races. Most of my efforts were focused on re-doing magnet and ballast setups so that they obeyed the no-shake USD rule requirement. As part of this, I also decided to include my BMC Mini in an effort to see whether it can be made competitive, however it still requires a slight shake to drop off the block. I'll give it a run on Thursday and get an idea of whether it can come close to the times of my other two HS cars, the Capri and Escort.

Here's a pic of them - three HS, two VS (GT) and one APC:

Well done Gordon. I still have some work to do. It'll be interesting to see how the Mini makes out !
