The MINI John Cooper Works PRO with starting number 317, adorned in a custom camouflage, pays homage to the iconic red and white color schemes synonymous with classic Minis in 1960s motorsport. In a nod to Mini’s historic victory at the 1964 Rallye Monte Carlo, #317 proudly displays a distinctive “37” logo, commemorating this monumental achievement and honoring MINI’s rich motorsport legacy.
The New MINI John Cooper Works PRO will compete in the SP3T category for turbocharged, special race prepped vehicles with 2 liter engines. #317 exemplifies the fusion of MINI’s iconic reliability and design with Bulldog Racing’s track-tested expertise.
Bulldog Racing will enter a second well-known and much-loved contender to the competition. The black MINI John Cooper Works #474 with a manual transmission secured a podium finish in last year’s Nürburgring 24 Hours in the VT2 class. This car has proven its mettle against fierce competition, solidifying its position as a formidable contender in endurance racing.
As excitement mounts for its debut, enthusiasts can anticipate an unforgettable showcase of the new MINI John Cooper Works race cars at this year’s Nürburgring 24 Hours from June 1st to June 2nd, 2024.
