Thanks so much for the kind words. Lovely Aston and I bet that Mini is a blast to flog around a twisty course. I would love to get over to your side of the pond one of these days to see you in action!!

Hi Conor
Thank you for your thoughtful email re Goodwood.
No hugs when we meet - I promise!
A safe place to meet is the new Press Center at Goodwood.
Would 11:30am Friday or Saturday work best for you?
All the best - Stephen
FYI - I was born and raised in London.

Dear Conor
We embed the company website in some of our Groups.
95% are installed without a problem - some take over the website.
I've deleted the TEXT box containing the Mini official website from the Mini Group.
Now - I'll have to make you the Leader of the Mini Group as well as an a Vintage Racing League Advisory Board Member :-))
With best wishes - Stephen

Dear Mr. O'brien
I'm sorry to hear he was hurt ... did someone cut him off?
It's good to know that he has recovered and is racing again ... and I see that the Mini is in great form, too.
Cheers!

Hi Conor, how are preparations for the Park going?

Will you be racing with us in the Mini Challenge or with the HRCA guys? We'll be sharing a grid with the HRCA but will be starting 10secs after I believe.

Hi Conor, thanks for the nice welcome. Ive spent a lot of time tying to get fired from my job watching your youtube vids, half of my work colleagues could probably be able to tell what gear your in, and what circuit at this stage :D
Caroline Cassidy April 29, 2009 at 5:30am

Hi Conor, sorry it's taken so long to write back. How are things with you? It's been a long time since I've seen you, hope your still pushing the mini as hard on the track as ever. Unfortunately I'm not racing this year, I've upped and moved to Cyprus for work and it's killing me not racing. Will hopefully be able to fly back for the Phoenix Park but will have to watch it instead of taking part. Will you be out with us this year? Caroline

Hi Conor
Thank you.
I let Travis have his one moment of artistic expression.
He is the world's best programmer, but.............................
We still haven't got the look and feel right, but we will keep working on it.
I hope that you are well.
Warmest regards - Stephen
