Llandow - takes a serious turn

We have raced at Llandow all season and during this time we have raced on old tyres ie tyres previously raced at one other event, for us at Clay the week before. Saving £140 and turning up on just the Sunday, so saving hotel costs and Saturdays practice fee has meant that we are able to race Llandow as our 3rd race in the month. Luckily all other minis have used old tyres too. Until this month! the other entrants all had new tyres, but we decided to race with old ones, estimating the difference to be about half a second 0.5. We hoped this would be enough for 2nd place. It was....just and actually we werent as far off the pace as we thought. Yes, we saved money, but Riley was quite demoralised. So, September??
