Auto crossing or stage rallying can be rough sports for cars such as a Peel Viking, a Mini Jem, an Ogle SX1000, a Cox GTM or a Magenta or even a Status 365. I can't remember having seen pictures of a Mini Marcos covered in mud from a rally though. But Yuk Hodgson proves it has been done, although it is perhaps not the ideal vehicle. He added: "Yup. Young, daft, no talent, less money, but keen, 1340cc, split 45 Webers, competition everything and lsd. Phew, it was a handful. Weighed as much as a bag of crisps, bloody dangerous!" Have a good weekend folks.
UPDATE 17:50 - John Mellors writes: "A road rally would you believe. Not quite so grand a spec either. 1275, twin SUs, no LSD and not quite so light with full roll cage and underfloor plating. Quiet a handful though. How do I know all this? I was the driver!" Thank you John!
Rallying a Mini Marcos - it has been done!
