Not sure if anyone would be interested in this but there is a Track day at the Anglesey on Sunday the 16th November. I'm taking my BRM there for the full day if anyone else fancies taking there's over. You can book it on www.bookatrack.com.

Yes mate this is my 3rd track day there, the track is brilliant nice and fast. I only use my BRM as a track car and it is a good one to be honest.

we at mgzr have a few meets in the north wales area that you all welcome to come along to, the usual place is the Stanney oaks put in Cheshire Oaks, or the other place is Loggerheads in Mold, as i say the more the merrier. :)

[Taff]

whens the next meet?

[samsexpress]

I have mentioned this meet in Anglesey on the theMGZR and there was an amount of interest on it if we are welcome to come???

[Taff]

damn right, the more the merryer, there will be a brm on the track, im sure he'll give us a good show. about how many are interested? there is a show in the n.e.c over the weekend, im going to that on saturday and up to anglesea on sunday.

Quick update, the trackday went really well, with no mechanical problems (although driver error from 3 of us caused the BRM to become a rally car and end up covered in mud and grass). Saw the MG boys on the brow of the hill but never got a chance to go over because of spending most of my time on the track. I also missed Taffy 02 who was speaking to my brother again due to being on the track. The BRM is a great track car and I would recomend a track day at Anglesey for anyone who wants to see what their car can do. Although it is bit different when it is wet (hence the offs in the morning) as the track is like driving on ice. I will put some photo's of the day on the site later for antone who's interested.

P.s the BRM gave Impreza's MR2's and souped up Skylines etc a good run, it can't catch them on the straights but makes up loads of ground on the corners. :happy:

[Adam]

Good stuff, sounds like you had a hoot!

Get those pictures up :D Makes me want to get the track BRM finished even sooner....

[slhhughes]

You need to mate if mine is keeping up with them in standard form yours should be flying past them. It is a bit frustrating as a lot of the other drivers don't move over for a Rover................

P.s sorry I couldn't make the NEC but obviously I was at Anglesey.

[Adam]

Haha, think I may put a sign in the rear window "You've been Rovertaken!"

Great to hear that she went round mechanically sound too :clap2:

[slhhughes]

That makes it 4 complete with the only fault being a minor fuel leak.

And it must be working hard as we got 111 miles on a full tank :wacko:

[GmL_BrM]

sounded like a cool day m8, sorry i couldn't be there but something came up - wanted to go as well!!!

[slhhughes]

Finally got round to putting some pictures on for anyone that's interested

Testing how wet the track was before going out in the BRM

[slhhughes]

I am seriously condiering it mate. I think i'll see how yours handles on a track day and then maybe get some. Although I think I may have been bitten by the Exige / Caterham bug........Sorry:shutup:
