Cooper S 1275 - when did it go 1293 cc?
I've just finished researching the 1964 BSCC (BTCC) for my site. This was the year that the 1275 Mini Cooper S was first raced. In early programmes, some entries were 1293 cc, but later in the season every entrant seemed to stick to 1275 cc.
I'm sure I read somewhere that Broadspeed actually was the first one to be able to increase the bore to get 1293 cc, but I can't remember where I read that. Does anybody know here if in 1964 1293 cc engines were used at all? It's a tiny detail of motorsport history of course (just 18 cc...) but I'd like to get my data right. |
