    You'll spend 10x of that contingency just getting into a competitive spot to maybe win some.

    Hell, winning in IMSA would pay for two sets of tires per race if you won every race.

    Looking at a series that is more attainable like SCCA Solo Nats or Pro Solo Tour you are SOL again because the MINI isn't competitive in it's classes.

    The fastest way from a big fortune to a small fortune is to go racing. :)

    Regarding the classes, I haven’t researched but I would imagine that is true as I don’t hear about them. I haven’t been to an actual SCCA race in quite some time. But For those that are, at least you can get some back. In Europe, they have a good spec racing class from what I hear.
