A quick update to let drivers know that the entry form for the following rounds is available now via the Downloads Page.
These are all on the same form, to be submitted and paid direct to the club, so you can enter individually or all at the same time.
Please get your entries in early, as this season is set to be a sell-out at many rounds!
We have a change to the start of our racing season, predictably with the current UK lockdown in place.
We had planned to start the season at Silverstone on 27-28 March, however this is not possible just yet. Rounds 1 & 2 were then due on 10-11 April, but again this would be tricky, with no overnight stays permitted.
Championship rounds 1&2 will therefore be held at Silverstone International on April 24-25, with separate races and each class doing a qualification and a race on Saturday.
Then on Sunday, each class will have a second race.
Please also note that if you won a trophy / award in 2020, that it / they will be available for collection from Mike and Alan over the weekend. See you soon at the track!
After the unique challenges of 2020, we’re already looking forward to 2021 and the Mini 7 Racing Club season.

We return to Snetterton, Norfolk, this weekend (19th-20th September) for rounds 6 and 7 of the 2020 Mini 7 Racing Club season.
COVID19 restrictions mean that it’ll be a closed-doors event, but thanks to MED Engineering, we’re going to stream live footage of Sunday’s two races.
There will be one Mini Se7en/S-Class race and one Mini Miglia/Libre race on Saturday and the same on Sunday.
If you’re not already a follower of our Facebook page, please head on over and give it a like, and you’ll be able to tune in on Sunday.

Hello and welcome in to our revamped club website. With the online world increasingly dominated by social media, things have very much changed over the past few years, so here’s an update to hopefully follow those trends.
The previous user login sections have gone, in favour of an easy-access bare bones of what we think is most important to club members during the season – namely who’s achieved the fastest laps, how many points you’ve scored and how to find the latest tech updates and bulletins.
The forum had been a tad broken and unloved for many years, so we would encourage all paid members to keep an eye on your email inboxes for Colin’s regular updates, and the private Facebook group chats we have in place.
Please bear with us as we gradually get to grips with the inner workings of the site; we’ll be gradually updating the calendar, standings and newsletter sections this week. All in time for what will hopefully be a momentous 56-car outing at Brands Hatch to support the BTCC.
To all Members of the Mini 7 Racing Club.
In my many years following and participating in the sport that we all love, namely Motorsport, I never thought that I would see the events that have taken place today. It was this afternoon that I received the following e-mail from the British Automobile Racing Club {BARC}; Continue reading
