Welcome to the Mini 7 Racing Club

Our headline series truly pushes the envelope of classic Mini performance, with highly-tuned 1293cc engines, slick Goodyear racing tyres and Ohlins motorsport dampers. These top-flight racing Minis can average over 95mph at Thruxton, although it’s the incredible cornering speeds that really set them apart.

First launched in 1970, the Mini Miglia series is as popular now as ever, with large grids and incredibly close racing from the front to the back. Expect power outputs in excess of 130bhp.

Grid numbers have been boosted further in recent years with the addition of the Mini Libre series, which races alongside.

First launched in 2017, the Mini Libre series is an invitational class if you fancy competing with the Mini Miglias on a more limited budget. Here you can run a powerful A-Series engine Mini without keeping to the strict Miglia specifications. So if you have an old hillclimb/trackday Mini in the garage, that could be the ideal base.

Specifications are similar to the Miglia cars, but up to 1380cc engines and your choice of cylinder head. In the past we have seen all manner of 16-valve, 7-port, 8-port and good old fashioned 5-port race Minis competing for the top step.

Emphasis is very much upon value-for-money with the Mini Libre class, DIY car preparation is encouraged, and there’s no need to have brand new tyres every meeting, or the latest trick upgrades.

Our original series has evolved a long way from the ’60s, when budding racers found the nearest, cheapest 850cc Mini, made some rudimentary upgrades and headed to Brands Hatch for a race. Nowadays the levels of preparation in this class are up with the very best saloon car racers.

With all the latest safety and handling modifications, up front is a highly-tuned 998cc-based A-Series engine developing over 100bhp. Power runs through straight-cut gears to give that distinctive racing soundtrack, while Goodyear cross-ply tyres allow the cars to slide spectacularly through the corners at high speeds.

These are highly addictive machines, which explains why so many drivers have been returning year-after-year, complete with a big grin after every race!

The Mini Se7en S-Class is a thrilling and highly competitive entry point to circuit racing. In place of the Se7en’s race-tuned 998 is a more mild specification 1293cc A-Series engine and standard gearbox.

Tuning is carefully restricted and regulated to allow DIY home mechanics equal footing with the professionals and keep costs to a minimum. Power outputs are in the region of 85-90bhp and lap times are usually a few seconds adrift from the Mini Se7en cars depending on the circuit.

The S-Class share races with the Mini Se7ens, starting from their own separate grid, and the action is just as exciting.
