Saturday (in a wet rainy day) I finally autocrossed w/ GyPsY.. what a Great Performer this little one is..!!!!
I am not a champion and I have a lot to learn but Saturday I did pretty well.. better than an MC40 which continued to do 360...

I shaved almost 4 sec. from my first run.. I was amazed how well the GP did even with puddles and cracks on the course LSD really helped !!

 

Very nice Marina, what was your time/the time of the winner?

 

Congrats!! So do we know which car does what duty now?

 

Was this SCCA, BMWCCA, PCA?? Also, what class?

Glad to see more GP's out running events.

 

I run with the Capitaldriving Club - no classes.. but more seat time !!!!
Waiting for Final results will be posted today ...

 

Thanks Marina. How did GyPsy feel out there? Big difference from running with your other MINIs?

 

The GP is quick and very responsive and quickly picks up on straight lines - of course I autocrossed w/ the heaviest MINI (the convertible) and the difference is amazing !!! thinking of going with smaller wheels - 16 ... should be cool.

Jeremy, come by next month (in VA) and if your folks give you the OK you can ride with me.

 

Just checked with them today. All event is full.
They do not except new member until later on this year.

 

I may have to come along for a day

 

Not the best time but a lot of FUUUUUN

 

Its great to see that your actually using your GP Marina! As opposed to locking it up in a garage and on the nice safe roads on nice sunny days!

 

If you really want to smoke some doors, I'd think about these.

 

Was that at Harry Grove Stadium in Frederick? I autocross myself (ES Miata), but I go to SCCA events at FedEx field. I haven't tried the Mini yet, though, but it's on my ToDo list!
