The North American MINI Cooper Championship first hit the track in 2006.   Patterned after the successful MINI Cooper Challenge Series in the UK, and securing a working relationship with the UK organizers, the NAMCC was launched to provide similar thrills to U.S. competitors.

Under the guidance and management of veteran MINI Cooper racer, Phil Wicks and his Phil Wicks MINI Driving Academy, the series provides an arena for MINI vs. MINI competition at an affordable price, in an affordable race car, at various race tracks across the country.  Split into two divisions for 2007, the east coast and west coast divisions will campaign in their respective locations and meet for a series championship run-off competition to crown the North American MINI Cooper Champion.  It’s a formula for fun, for competitive racing and the best bang for the racing buck in motorsports. 
The MINI makes for a great handling streetcar and as a racer, it is at its prime.  Taking notice of the series potential, series organizers were able to negotiate a national cable network, MavTV, to televise the events for the 2007 season.  It is virtually unheard of for a grassroots-oriented racing series to garner this much attention and this much exposure.  We all, it seems, love the MINI Cooper and the North American MINI Cooper Championship brings the excitement, the thrills of competition to racers who are looking for the challenge of competitive door-handle-to-door-handle motor racing. 

This is where you’ll find it.  If you’re a MINI racer, or would like to become one, please call us.  We’ll give you all the MINI details!
