MINI Club Racer Shakedown May 28, 2008
We took our 2005 MINI Cooper S to the track yesterday to start its shakedown process. The car was originally built for the MINI Challenge, but that series never really got off the ground. Instead of letting the car rot away, we begged MINI for the chance to campaign at NASA, SCCA and BMW CCA events.
The car has a full complement of safety gear and suspension work, but it has never really been raced. Our job will be to make sure that it’s well sorted and that everything is up to snuff.

- I race a 2003 MCS, so any set-up details you mention will be of special interest to me. Have fun!

- I too am very interested in the set-up (e.g. spring rates, ride heights, etc.). Please tell all.
