I have been mildly impressed with SPEED's coverage on the MINI. I suppose I was expecting very little, from past experience...

Once again, nice job!

It was great fun watching the Smalley/Trinkler Mini motor through the field and finish first. Thanks RSR. Way to go guys! Good luck the rest of the season.

Congratulations on the win. Lots of good " face time " for the Mini as well as the team and the explanation as to the cause of your earlier troubles was mentioned several times. Apparently your ECU worries are over and the changes you made for this season are paying off .

Great running...way to push! You really dominated too! I was wondering if there's a reason you can't run a MCS GP type rear spoiler. I'm assuming some sort of class rules, but it is technically a stock item (at least on our GP's). Although you guys have really figured out the package now I'm wondering if the wing could help further.

THX and congrats.

That was a fun watch. It was great watching 198 sneak through the field and then BAM into the lead.

Congrats on making MINI history.

Randy, just be careful and not win too much or they will start adding weight, placing a restricter plate, and decreasing the size of your fuel tank.

Not sayin', just sayin'.
