Thank you for the links.

Does anyone know the schedule for MINI in the rally races, and what network will it be on? Speed channel I hope.

I never thought I'd see a MINI that looks BETTER with a good coat of dirt, but this one sure does!!!

Mini has confirmed the John Cooper Works MINI WRC will make its first appearance in the World Rally Championship on the Rally d'Italia May 5th to 8th 2011.
