Hi all. New member here. I purchased a 07 Mini Copper S in 2017 mainly for rallycross, but keeping it licensed for the road. Starting 4th racing season with 2 to 3 drivers in the car per event. Car is hanging in there, but will appreciate input from members on any new issues that pop up. Nice to meet you

all.

Welcome to the forum. Thanks for sharing the picture.

Three drivers in the car? at the same time?

Welcome, Not many MINI owners taking their MINIs offroad for RallyCross. But you're proving it can be done. For sure would make sure to have a good Quaife LSD, and suspension setup.

Sorry for the confusion, but what I meant was normally a car will have one or 2 drivers each driving their individual runs with 8- 10 runs per event. Whereas most cars will do just 10 runs in an event, our car may run 30 or more. That is a lot of abuse. We run in both Prepared & Modified classes.

Up to this point we have been running a stock suspension with factory LSD. We just installed a 2" lift and koni shocks. We will see what happens.
