Don't know if you saw this but it's from last Sunday's autocross. Yes, the driver kept the shiny side up!

Really? That car was there?

I didn't know they'd gotten a new(er) MINI.....

Weren't the Oasis Tan folks one of the founders of the KC MINI club?

Craig has had a few MINIs and he is nationally ranked I think. Anyhow, I thought the picture was quite impressive plus the fact the photographer took the shot at the precise moment.

I won't make this mistake twice on two forums. Yes, he is Nationally Ranked. I can say I know that for a fact since most of the people on the autocross forum beat me senseless when I have a "polite" chat with Nationally Ranked racers.

Craig purchased my08 R56 in 2011. Bought this one shortly before Nationals last year. Not sure why, except he did smash mine up a bit. Craig has had many MINI's.

Are there autocrosses every weekend? Where can I see the schedule?

Mokanmotorsports.com Just don't tell them Zach Ingalls sent ya. Not many of those guys like me.

Scroll to the bottom of the mokan forums and there is a Google calendar with all the dates.

Craig got this mini late last year since the other one was experiencing power cut issues at full tilt...literally it was detecting ice mode when he went hard around corners. He's not all that happy with this one either... I let him drive Taz at the test and tune.... holy crap! If I can just go half as fast I would be happy!

He told me he tried picking up a JCW Coupe from Baron, but they didn't want to deal.

Didn't he have issues with Baron a few years ago?

Don't know...before my time

Baron is listed as a current sponsor and they worked on the car trying to figure out why it was cutting power.

I rode with him when he had a 2006 R53. It took all I had to hang on, he is quick!

Word on the street is he got rid of the Mini recently and bought an Audi TT since everyone in D-Stock seems to be heading that direction.

He still has the Mini, but your are correct in that he will run the TT this year to see how it does. Worse case, the TT goes to his wife he said

I usually only see women driving Audi TT's.
