Anyone seen this mini?
Im trying to trace a Mini that i once saw on a website.
It belonged i think to Chris Judge. Its blue, space framed and very wide. In the picture i have got its runing with the number 64. I think its one of the best looking minis ive ever seen. Just wondered if anyone knows anything like where it is, if its still raced etc. |

M'424, have you not got a picture of the blue machine? Chris has been sprinting a maroon coloured Mini for some years now-(which is very quick), would be keen to see it.

Hi Minicross 424; Chris judge used to have a spaceframed Blue mini that was built around the old monocoque of a F3 car. The side sections of the chassis were from the F3 car. The sapceframe was very well built and it handled really nicely. really needed and engine like the one in Mad Dog's Special saloon, i.e. a 1300 BDH. It originally belonged to a mate of mine in Bexleyheath, that used to work for Sanspeeds, but Steve has since emigrated to warmer climes(lucky so and so). I loved the car and wish I had bought it when I had the chance. Chris had trouble getting to grips with it as it was like a single seater. He used to get better times out of his conventional British Gas Mini that the S/frame. I still have withdrawl symptoms about Minis and will probably succumb to one before I finish competing. Fiestas are fun but can't beat a Mini. Look at Leigh's puple/lime green one in the TRc championship. Also had a Terrapin single seater in the past (1480cc Mini engine and box in the back.Went like hell and over-steered like a rally car, but very good fun)
