HRCR Mini Sport Cup: Dixies Historic Challenge 2nd Round Review

- 

Twenty-five Minis were registered to compete and these gruelling military roads certainly took a few victims with Peter Ellerby/Ben Anderson, losing 1st and 2nd gear half way round Stage 2! Clive King/Anton Bird and Colin McDowell/ Brynmore Pierce had more bad luck, having to retire early, whilst Paul Price/Tom Bishop retired after Stage 5 having blown their head gasket. Shane Gamble/Bob Ward unluckily had a drive shaft go on Stage 3, resulting in Shane and Bob having to limp their Mini out of the stage. And the bad luck didn’t stop there, as Stephen Robinson/Daniel Nieroda were on their way to placing 3rd in MC4 on their first time out on Epynt, before this was taken away by gearbox trouble.
