Exocets racing in the 6 hour enduro
Discussion
I've managed to persuade 3 of my fellow MX150R (Race MeV Exocets) to join me in entering the 360MRC's 6 hour enduro race this weekend at Donnington.
It's going to be my first team entry into something like this and really looking forward to pitching the car against everything from 1960s classics to the 90s and newer hot hatches.
Think it's going to be a busy day though, as we've got 3x20 minute races in the morning, then 10 minutes after the end of the last race before the start of the 6 hour race! Whoever's doing that first stint is going to be exhausted!! But hey, it's all part of the fun.
Anyone who's at Donnington on Saturday is more than welcome to come say hello and cheer us on!
I'll update the post over the weekend with how we all get on

Completely knackered!!
But... We finished 3rd overall!! Only beaten by a Britcar BMW (17 laps behind) and a Britcar Mini (2 laps behind). Not too bad given that BMW was kicking out ~400bhp
Couldn't believe how well the cars stood upto continued abuse. On top of the 6h the 3 20 mins plus qually this morning means I'm ready for bed now!
