Default Mini in the Park (+GT3 RS, need hosting for vids )

Had a great day out today at mini in the park, silverstone, saw loads of amazing minis. Didn't have too much time (or memory space) to take pics as my mate was buying up loads of cheap mini stuff. Here are the photos i did take though and I have some vids of Russ Swift (world record stunt driver) in the new mini convertible and an Evo, and a few beginnings of mini 0 - 60 sprints.... if anyone has any hosting space i could then post them here

Very nice mini with 3/4 tone paint, chrome rims, zeemax body kit amazing sound system and very nice engine bay - although still only 1.3.




Another Zeemax Mini



Holeshot Racing's 400Hp, turbo hayabusa powered mini featured on 5th gear and in Evo. (does anyone have that 5th gear episode?)






Very nice Maniflow mini, extremely well finished



Mini on the rolling road:



Various Other minis and engine bays:









and at Silverstone Porchse garage (no CGT sadly )



If you want any in high res, just ask

I think sending a PM to one of the regular hosters may help

yeah a couple turbocharged, mostly were doing the 0 - 60 sprint. Fastest mini of the day did 0 60 in 4.66s i think - it was bike engined. The whole event is going to be broadcast on ITV's new car show (cant remember what its called) so if u ask nicely jabba might rip it for you

First of all excellent pics, i guess the show you're talking about is Speed Sunday, quite a good programme, maybe vicki will do the programme And if jabba doesn't cap it i'll certainly try to

No idea mate, anyway any idea when the coverage will be aired? *Edit* the only guy i remember from deals on wheels was mike brewer, but he never did 5th gear as far as i know just driven. and the only other ITV car show i can think of is pulling power
