Just a general reminder that street racing discussions are prohibited.

Please post your results, or as Andy might say, Show me the numbers!



  • 4th in "BS" class (BMWCCA autocross) ahead of 2003 M3, a couple M Roadsters. Randy Webb was #1 that day (like most days)
I raced my MINI during the 2002 and 2003 seasons. The MINI was my introduction to competitive driving in a controlled environment. Props to the Rocky Mountain Chapter of BMWCCA for welcoming the MINI with open arms.

The best "mod" was seat time IMO, followed by the rear sway.
