MINI 2 Mexico: Chris Wilson for WRC Mexico Rally 2017

Rally driver Chris Wilson is raising funds so he can compete in the Mexico stages of the World Rally Championship 2017 in an R50 MINI Cooper. Hear his plea and read about his rallying history...
 
Hi, I’m Chris Wilson and have been rallying since 1989 in England starting with a beat up old Ford Escort MK2 that I built myself from many used spare parts.




 The purpose of this fund raising campaign is to fulfil our goal of competing in a WRC event with all our rally heroes of today’s world rally championship and take our humble British motoring Icon “Mini Cooper” to WRC.  

We built the Mini Cooper to rally after the exciting news that Prodrive had developed a Mini Countryman for WRC in 2012 but sadly the Mini works team was gone just over a year later.  With a passion for Mini since the 70's, having owned/built several Classic Minis I want to have our Mini Cooper back in WRC and share the whole story with Mini/Rally enthusiasts worldwide.

Since I started rallying I’ve dreamed big and worked with passion, dedication and determination to fulfil those dreams and goals. Along the way we have had family, friends and many supporters (currently EBC brakes UK/USA, G oil CR, Muflas Sicar, Fortech CR, Eminiparts.com)to help us compete on the events but to compete in Rally Mexico WRC 2017 with require a lot more funding than in previous years. The funding generated with this campaign would go towards the shipping logistics of the Mini Cooper and spares from Costa Rica to Mexico  needed to complete the 3 days of rally stages. We appreciated any donation big or small and will post all donation names on the Mini so you all will be with us on the event.
