RALLY CLUB

Show Notes

Continuing my journey through club motorsport, I partnered back up with Spark Developments to take part in the opening round of the MDA Rallycross Championship, driving an R53 Mini in the BMW Mini Series.

A typically dramatic day unfolded, with the Spark team keeping me in the race. From crashing in heat 1 and taking my door off, to racing in the final with no power steering, this is a day I’ll remember for a long time.
