They're running a new class called 'Mini Libre' for oversize/stroked engines, crossflows, you name it so long as it's A series ,all steel body and 10" wheels. Sounds good that!

I like how they have used a photo of the Coldwell mini in the advert - good luck getting that through scruit!


the only problem with it is that it will be like the old extreme mighty mini series, in that it will be an arms race at the top, and loads of people will only want to do a few rounds

it would be great to watch though, that's for sure
should you wish, you can contact me on rich@minispares.com

You're right Rich.
If they don't abandon this daft idea very soon, it'll be very embarrassing.... Miglias failing to impress their sponsors by not crossing the finish line first and the "Hot Rods" spaced out at 400m intervals in an orderly queue at the front.

+1

Can't understand the logic of mixing Libres and Miglias.
