Sounds interesting....although mainly for the big guns. It's a good read for those interested in MINI motorsports.

i saw that sometime last week... and yea... looks like awards mainly for people driving track-only MINIs.. cuz i sure as hell wouldn't want my daily driver in wheel-to-wheel action

i wonder if we'll ever see an actual factory-backed road race team as opposed to this "oh you won? here's some cheese" business.

It's a possibility, especially now that they have brought the real MINI challenge over here to the US. I'm sure they will start to really look into that.
