Jon Betts Autograss Mini

[Jon]

Not much to look at yet but I've just bought another Mini that I'm building into an Autograss racer. It will be to Class 1 spec so no major changes, mainly safety stuff. Could go higher but my wife and kids will also be having a go so it has to stay Class 1 but should be good for some close racing as all the cars are basically the same. Going to do it to match the road car, so orange and black with a few stickers, got my first meeting on April 2nd so need to pull my finger out! Oh and thanks for the loan of the trailer Mr Pipe
