Now THAT is sick! Are you going to want to actually race this car with the amount of time/detail that has gone into it?

Primaraly BMWCCA in D Mod. Also NASA GTS I think.
If you want to see a great in car vid from Bryan Watts' C Mod M3, then check this out. http://www.bryanwatts.com/videos/VIREnduro05.wmv Download it then watch. It's long, but one of the best in car vids I've seen. It will give you an idea of who and what I will be racing against. Yes, the Mini is very much the underdog in this class, but that's the challenge.

Yea Larry, I'll use it for now until I can figure out the best path to take. Some interesting choices these days.

Chiming-in from London Greg!

The new additions look very nice... Curious to hear what rates you might be contemplating...

Yes, getting close Larry, (knockin on wood)
Tony, thanks for checking in from over the pond. Hope you are well.
Rates will be high, maybe an average of 500 front and 850 rear. I have collected many sets of springs for testing and tuning. Every track will call for a certain setup. Sway bars will play into this also.

It's still registered and insured right?
Do you have room to bolt a milk crate in there somewhere? So when I come up, i'll have somewhere to sit so we can take that bad boy for a spin around the block.

Sure, that's not a problem.
Not sure I would use this particular one for street driving, but there are other options.
