Default Newbie racer

Hello everyone, my name is Roger Grimshaw and I race in the MINI Challenge series. I was looking around for a series to race in and picked MINI's - I liked them before but for the road they werent my thing - now nearly a season in and I am addicted to them in both race and raod trim

Hoping that there are some good ideas to help me here on the forum, although the series cars are tightly regulated i am looking for a road car and will be making some serious changes to that

regards to all

Hi Roger, welcome to MCUK!

You certainly should get a few ideas from here but nothing beats a club meet or getting involved at a show to see first hand what people on here and on the scene in general are doing.

Hi Roger, welcome to MCUK. I think that there were some talk of seeing MINI Challenge at Snetterton in September - are you racing this year, or planning to next?
