Hi all,

I'm new on this forum and I will introduce myself.

I'm a mini addict from belgium.

My car is not a road car but a race car, competing in hillclimb championship here in belgium :

Here is the beast :





1973 shell, very light 545 kilos, fully adjustable suspension, 4 pot alloy calipers with ferodo ds 3000 pad, front and rear in grp

1380 engine with 296 scatter cam, longman head, spilt 45's, 1.5 rollers, JKD SC box, lsd with 4.3 cwp... A good screamer



you can see it in action there or as passenger there


Next season will be the car more powerful as it will get a new rebuild and a 7 port head with two 45dcoe...




I'm also the happy owner of a clubman estate and a 1100 special that are planned to be rebuild before 2010



Hoping to have great discussions with mini lovers here

Welcome to TMF.

[1380gtr]

Thank you all,

For the nurb it will be rather difficult as september is the busiest month in my calendar, 4 racing sundays that month...

For bungle, I'm not so brave as I always keep a little under my gaz pedal to be sure it will be safe enough

Idon't know if there are vids of my car on you tube, it's possible

I will post some vids of the car with the new engine fitted as soon as the head will come from minisport

See you

maybe it's mine, if you look on the videos, I do lift both inner wheels because of the grip of the tire and the l.s.d.
