MINI Classing
All MINI’s will be combined into a single PAX (theoretical performance) based group. The PAX numbers are based on the Class and Modifier. Base model MINIs are in the “3” class, and MINI S and JCW models are in the “2” class. The MINI Class Modifiers are in the table below. For example, a stock, base MINI with no modifications would be S3 and a John Cooper Works with non-factory installed springs would be in T2. Participants will need to register by choosing the MINI class then choosing a secondary BMW class (S2, S3, T2, T3, and M). The MINI PAX numbers will be based on the following:
