I've read in Autosport mag that the spec Mini Cooper series is all sold out(20 cars) due to over whelming interest!Next year they will switch to the S.
Can rallying be far behind(S 1600 class?)

I think not...
PS Great addition w motorsport forum-thanks Paul!!

Sorry,I guess I've probably been talking about the JC challenge! Still wait for the rally cars to appear-I think there is alot of potential w the Mini eventually even in gravel spec!

As far as I know the MINI is too short to Rally (WRC) in standard form, so they would have to some pretty serious mods. Think 206, but more so!

Mike Cooper was saying that next year, he's thinking of getting those who've done the JCC this year to do the same again but include a couple of rallies to make it truly multi-discipline. Gulp!

Paul,I was thinking Mini(s) rallying in more production based classes and be interesting to all! As a WRC car your right,it would be to short.Pugs extended their bumpers alot,thats why they are always falling off!
