Racing Minis

[JESFromASCParticipant]

Starting to lose hope — any forum dedicated to racing Mini’s?
I’m coming from Spec Miata where the information available was overwhelming to Mini where I can’t seem to find anything…
Any full cage – gutted track monsters out there?
At the moment I’m trying to find anything on doing an AC compressor delete on a 2009.
Thanks

Several MINIs have run at the Chasing Dragon Hillclimb but only one is listed for the Aug 15 2020.

We are racing a 2003 R53, affectionately now named Piglet. We ran the Lucky Dog Racing League event at Charlotte this past weekend. Took first in Class C & 9th O/A in race 1, a 7 hour event split between Friday night and Saturday morning. IN Race 2 on Sunday, 10hours, a bit over 7 hours in we lost the serpentine belt tensioner while 6th O/A and first in class. Ultimately finished 3rd in class & 12th overall in Race 2. Our car has very nice full cage, header, coilers, LSD, upgraded oil cooler & radiator, etc. Daughter Becca just revived our old Sweede Lil Pigs FB page under our new team name Pig Pen Racing.
