    :cornut: Chris Knox we are very glad that you are here at Motoring Alliance the friendly site. We have some former and current racing types around here. The photos are great, thank you. I'm a Highland Scot via my mother. Although she was born in Low Land Edinburgh, Grand Father Marcus Gunn Sutherland was born in Wick in 1874 and served 25yrs in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders 1894-1919. Glad that you are here Sir. Loch Sloy:Thumbsup:

    Welcome, thanks for joining Motoring Alliance.

    For those that don't know, Chris is going to be coming to the States to drive an RSR Motorsport R53 at both Lime Rock and Laguna Seca in whats being called the R53 MINI Racing Swansong.

    Please see http://www.motoringalliance.com/forums/racing-mini-s/14398-mini-swansong-r53-motorsports.html#axzz24qJkHWT6 to help the effort.

    Thanks for the welcome Jason, glad to hear you have some Scottish blood in you!! :Thumbsup: I live near Glasgow in a village called Elderslie, It is the birthplace of Sir William Wallace, I'm guessing you've seen Braveheart :D

    Thanks :biggrin5:

    Thanks Jim :Thumbsup:

    Thanks Nathan, sorry it took so long for me to join! Thanks again for your kind donation! I'll send you a pic of my helmet with the Motoring Alliance logo on it, I get it back from the paintshop in the next few days :Thumbsup:

    My flights are booked! :Thumbsup: Still trying hard to raise as much as I can to help offset the cost.

    Thanks :Thumbsup:

    Thanks:Thumbsup:

    Thanks Dave:Thumbsup:

    See ya at Laguna Seca Chris! There'll be a West Coast contingent there to see the MINIs, albeit an R53 swansong. Some of us Scottish heritage folk would surely enjoy crack'n some local brew when it's time.

    Cheers! :beer
