I hope we have this series in North America soon, maybe just a Canadian series. Even better how about a MINI Clubman Diesel Canadian Touring- car Series (MCDCTS). If VW can do it why can't MINI?</p> This looks like so much fun. I hope we have this series in North America soon, maybe just a Canadian series.
